What jokes have you made because of the language barrier?

I hate to recall this experience, but I did have an embarrassing experience with a foreigner.

I remember when I was working in the cake shop at the gate of our school, it should be just spring this year. The cake shop where I work has a rule that cakes can't stay overnight. Every day, I put a small sign on the counter showing the date, indicating that my cake was made that day, and a 10% discount sign will be put up at 8: 00 every night to increase sales.

I still remember that I worked the night shift that day and had to work until nine o'clock in the evening. A foreigner came in when I looked down to tidy up the cupcakes. Tall foreigners seem to have poor Chinese. First, after speaking some English, they said in stuttering Chinese, "Four, 25?" At first, I was arranging the cake with my head down. At first, I didn't catch what he meant in English. He pointed to the sign with the date of production in the store, so I naturally thought that the foreigner was asking if it was produced on April 25, that is, that day. So I definitely say "yes". Foreigners are not at ease, but also ask in English, are they all? I must say "for all" in English, all of which were produced on the same day. So the foreigner happily picked up the cake and I went to the kitchen to clean it up.

The change happened when the foreigner checked out, and it cost more than 50 yuan including the discount. The foreigner quit on the spot and shouted at me to say four twenties. I was stunned by this scene. When did I say four 25s? Later, when I thought about it carefully, I guess it was because I didn't listen carefully at that time, and he took the date as the price.

Later, the foreigner shouted and left, leaving a group of people in our shop laughing their heads off.
