Or the guy who bumped into me in a bakery that then proceeded to use 4
different languages in sequence until I acknowledged him :-)

I always like to annoy my German teach by deliberately (incorrectly)
pronouncing obviously-foreign words the German way. Although admittedly
sometimes it is hard to know which foreign words to pronounce their way or
the original way. But still I can't help myself when I see "Job", it's just
crying out to be pronounced "Yob" :-)
