Japanese subtlety

One of them went back to Japan. Everyone thought it's for some important meeting, really short trip - 2 days off + weekend, total = 4 days.

He came back to work this morning, went round to every dept... with the nice lady from Admin. Imagine the shock they gave when they held up their left hands, shiny silver band on their fourth finger and said "We married".

Whoa. Right under our noses. And some of those noses are especially sharp. But nobody knew! Who knows what happens after 4:30pm? It's like Ben Stiller's "Night at the Museum" - things come alive after 4:30pm!

When probed,

guy: To me, we started in Jan.

girl: To me, only March.

it's only April!

Japanese subtlety - drops bombshells at u, leaving u standing transfixed, mouth open wide, for a few seconds. Well... it's not my first time.

Another one also left for Japan at the same time - for a week! Maybe we'll have to keep a lookout for the left fourth finger when she returns next week...
