One of the weirdest phone conversations at work...

Hi, I am Zeena from (COMPANY NAME).

Hi, Wissam here. Where are you from Zeena?

I am from (COMPANY NAME).

Okay ... are you Filipino?

Yes I am. Why do you ask?

(laughs) You are most welcome to cover our event. I am Syrian. (laughs again)

(I think "so what?") Good bye, Wissam. (I don't laugh.)

I don't know what to make of that.

I don't feel like laughing. I really don't.

I don't care where he's from. Why should he care where I'm from?

Oh I shouldn't even care about it at all.
