Cross talk

At the bank today, as I was trying to open an account to get my grant funding in, the bank guys asked me, "So what's the scale of transactions you might be expecting on a day to day basis?"
I, assuming they meant the number of transactions, blithely said, "Oh maybe 3-5 day"
They assumed I meant 3-5 LAKHS a day.

For a few minutes, before the truth dawned on everyone, I enjoyed the sensation of being regarded as a stupendously successful businesswoman ;)
