I'm not making this up... A Filipina co-worker of mine all excited went over to our nurse's station with some good news. She just recently got approved for an extended leave with pay and wanted to celebrate it at work. She said she could make 3 kinds of dishes at home then bring them to work the next day so we could all share it. Some said pinoy-spaghetti (the sweet sauce kind), some said kare-kare, others wanted dinugan. The entire week I have had the craving for pancit so I went "Magpa-canton ka naman"... right after that came out of my mouth, I realized how dirty it sounded but I just pretended to be stupid about it. She got pissed and blew off the whole thing. I ended up treating my other co-workers to some chinese food after our shift for s******g up a potential free meal at work.
Would you have reacted the same way?
