Dear colleagues,
I just received this video in my email and I thought you might find it funny as I did.

Just a little break.

Enjoy!
Eileen

Love it! Mar 4, 2009

A tad long for a busy day, but really funny, especially the end. "But the words came out 'NOOOOO problem!'"
Who is this Sharon I wonder? Any Proz colleague of ours?

Priceless! Mar 5, 2009

I loved this! Apparently Sharon is a singer-songwriter, because she has a couple of other videos on YouTube.

Ahahaha Apr 1, 2009

I was wondering what would happen in the end, and they "owe her still ".. oh God, so sorry lol

This was the best translation marathon of all times.

Thanks for the video Sharon, I hope you will ultimately collect your money < fingers crossed >
