- Me: What is your job ?
- The girls: Programma
- Me (for the next 30 minutes): Oh great, me too ! Which languages ? <here comes the enumeration of the 100 programming languages I know, each one pronounced in 10 different ways, Brazilian accent, etc.>
Even "Java" didn't seem to mean anything to them. Strange. I assumed they had special programming languages in Brazil.
10 years later, in Palo Alto. I read some article about Brazil society. One word catches my attention.
Programma = Prostitute. Oh.
So yes, don't call yourself a programmer. Especially in Brazil when you don't know the language.
