#18 Still Learning To Be A Human

Meet Mocca.
He is my Boss’ golden retriever. I’m not a dog lover, but I have to admit that Mocca is one of the most beautiful and the most well-behave dogs I’ve ever met.


Okay, I would not tell you much about Mocca, it’s about my Boss funny habit that I couldn’t understand: He always compare person with Mocca.

I repeat : compare PERSON (homo sapiens) with MOCCA (Canis lupus familiaris)

Not knowing how, he always find any resemblances between his species with dog. I was one of his victims.

He’re the stories..

ONE
During my first week in Bali made a comment about how I dress up.

(For your information, as Moslem women we have an obligation to cover our body throughout head to toe-not include face and palms-).

Boss : "You know, every time I look at you, you always remind me to Mocca? "
Me : "And how come is that? (Feeling annoy to be compare with a dog)
Boss : "Well..you see, Mocca is a retriever with very thick hair, yet he lives in tropical
island Bali..Bet he always feel sweltering.
While you, you also stay in Bali and you always wear long sleeves and
cover your head..
Get the point?"
Me : *rolling my eyes-speechless*

TWO

Boss met a woman who was sharing story about her child.

Woman : "I cannot understand my two-years-old daughter. She always seems frightened
every time she meets new people…."
Boss : "O really? Well Mocca used to be afraid every time he met new people when he was
child as well...."
Woman : (I don’t know what happened next but if I was her I’ll shouted this popular
Indonesian slank phrase..)" Maksud lo??!!"

Boss, with all my respect: YOU’RE ODD!
