Yiddapore

I had a meeting with my President, and the first thing I asked before we started was, "do you know what chutzpa means?" She didn't. I told her that's basically the definition of what I was doing...

I asked the other girls at work if they knew what chutzpa meant, and they didn't.

Then I read Time Out Singapore, and it mentioned schlep - TWICE - and it mentioned nosh once. No one at work knew those words either. Who's writing this magazine? Are Jewish words infiltrating a country in Asia surrounded by other countries who hate Jews?
