I have a dilemma. A work-related dilemma. So. My company offers a $25 gift certificate if you fill out the Mayo Clinic's health survey. You fill in crap about your weight, eating habits, cholesterol, blah blah, and they tell you if you're healthy. Sounds fine, right? Well. The Mayo Clinic can report aggregate data (without your name) back to

i am glad you are back safely from singapore. i wonder why they asked if you were french? are there more french tourists than american ones?

too bad 'orca' in french is still orca.

[curlyjones]

i have no idea why french. there are plenty of american ex-pats in country, so...your guess is as good as mine. i don't think that i look particularly french.

[blonde_amelie]

no, i don't think you look particularly french either.

silly singaporeans, don't know their frnech from their english/welsh

[curlyjones]

dude, i told this to people at work and they all said "well, yeah, you look french."

whaaaa?

I dunno. Be pissed AND take the money? ...Maybe your work doesn't realize that the pregnancy question is a part of the health assessment?

I've heard Singapore is a great place to visit but I don't really know how well I'd blend in with the Singaporeans. :)

You DID teach me the only french I know... Je suis un canarde?

[curlyjones]

it's highly unlikely that my work doesn't know the question is in there. every little word is agonized over on every bit of training material and and surveys. ::sigh::

at any given time, the population of singapore equals the population of visiting tourists, so fitting in isn't a problem. well, until you open your mouth.

Take your $25, but know that exxon is cheap. For mine, I got $150!

Also, I really want to go to Singapore.
