Oh I would be so rich.....
Typical flight London - Italy. Club Europe cabin full of American passengers going on Med cruises, romantic breaks etc.
Me: "Madam would you like a hot towel?"
Madam: "Sure...." - opens her hand
Me: "Madam it's better if you handle it with care as it is REALLY hot" (We make them with boiling water from the brewers)
Madam: "oh....don't you have any COLD hot towels?"
Me: "................" (no suitable word comes to my head quickly enough so I decide to shut up).
PS: no offence to Americans, but many of my passengers from the other side of the Ocean seem to think that Hot Towel is a word!
Other example:
Pax asks "What is it?" - me: "It's a cheese and ham pizza"
Pax: "Oh, is it vegetarian?"
I sometimes think I might as well be a primary school teacher
