My new job?

Beijing, China


It's the national holiday so all offices are closed. Fortunately for me shops are open. I'm at one warehouse and only the owners are here. The phone rings and it's their customer in London. Poor Wu is confused - he does not speak English. He hands the phone to me. I act as translator conveying Brit's question, then Wu's answer; brit's complaint, then Wu's solution. What's my hourly rate??? (Brit said, "You sound American.")
