Can you step outside for a minute?

Post image for Can you step outside for a minute?

So if you worked in the apparel industry and you were in Indonesia on business, and a driver picked you up and took you to the middle of nowhere to visit a factory to negotiate prices and contracts…and after a little while they walked you outside to a shallow grave hole and a headstone sign bearing your name….. would you be a little freaked out?

Well The Husband was.

Yeah.

Well.

It turns out they were planting a tree in his honor.

Out of respect or praise or some kinda Indonesian freak-out-the-American-who-has-watched-one-too-many-sopranos custom.

Those Indonesians.

Love to mess with us.

Do you think they will pull the sign out after he leaves and put a new name in front of the same tree for the next American?
