I am Not the Worm in Your Stomach.

I don’t know where this phrase came from, but it’s kinda popular among Chinese:

“I am not the worm in your stomach. How would I know what you are thinking?”

Specially dedicated to my colleague, Y.

Do you have this experience of receiving some unknown purpose reports, and days later when this person mention to you, you ask what is that for, and he/she start saying to you:

“You only need to say, you want or you don’t want to do it?”

(Funny thing. I didn’t even know what was that. So how to know if I want to do it or not?)

Do you have this experience of doing the same thing for over 2 years, and one fine day this person send you an email and tell you that actually it was the wrong procedure?

(Also a funny thing. Does that mean that over the past 2 years she was doing nothing but to look at all the mistakes?)

Do you have this experience of receiving instruction A a few months back, and out of a sudden, this person drop you an email and deny everything regarding the instruction A that he/she gave, claiming that she have had questions for the past few months and never voice out?

(Another funny thing. I could even remember and point out the exact conversation taken during that time and the location, and she could still deny it.)

I have had these all with Y.
