Triple Citizen
Registered Users (C)
Something funny happened when I re-entered the US yesterday at O'Hare. The agent was most likely a rookie. Really young looking and I guess they initially start on the US citizens/GC holders line and then progress to visitors. So I make my way to the booth and hand over my US passport and customs declaration. This is our conversation:-
Officer: Where you coming from?
Me: UK
Officer: Purpose of trip?
Me: Business
Officer: What kind of business?
Me: IT, IP networking
***By now he has scanned, stamped and returned my passport to me***
Officer: What is a good question to ask a visitor who claims to be here for an IT related trip
Me: That depends on his/her specialisation
Officer: Give me something to ask
Me: Well if he/she states networking, ask them what is the difference between routing and switching
Officer: And what should the answer be?
Me: One is done in hardware, the other in software
Officer: Thanks and you have a good day
Me: You are welcome
I found it really hilarious.
