Each new term the teaching staff are expected to run an extra curricular club for the students after school. I've been taking strategy games with cards. This term I have a record number of students all boys in my club. I asked our Vietnamese purchIng officer if she would buy me 3 packs of cards, which she did. Today I went down to collect my cards.
Yes she has bought me the cards I asked for, 3 packs.however lost in translation. She has literally purchased 3 packs of cards, each pack containing about a dozen packs of cards. She has taken the word pack to mean literally that. I should have asked for 3 decks of cards.

Now you can play 10 games of Patience at once. Confusing? Yeah Nah!
Oops!
How were you to know that the decks came in packs?
I think it is rather funny. :)
