was talking to the cell phone operator, as i needed to activate my phone's roaming for my upcoming hong kong trip. the conversation was ending, but i remembered a slight problem i encountered the last time i used that service.
me: do i have to change any other phone setting?
operator: no, just the manual network selection i taught you.
me: ok, but in australia, i couldn't access the local network.
operator: oh don't worry, hong kong is a normal country.
(couldn't help it, i let out a full-volume laugh at this point.)
me: so australia is ... what?
operator: sorry, i meant "regular." hong kong is a "regular" country.
still had no idea what she meant, but i figured it meant i wouldn't have problems in hong kong. also, i assured her i wasn't laughing at her (she apologized profusely), it just sounded cute.
am also planning to call her back to report if hong kong is indeed normal. i have my doubts.
