Iron strike

Walking to work today I was waved down by a woman I don't know. "Melissa!" She called, "I am in need of your help. I bought a new iron and it's not from Moldova."

Well, I thought, I'm not sure what iron would be "Fabricat in Moldova." But for the next three minutes or so we poured over the diagrams and the user manual's English directives until I was able to clearly explain the answer to her question, "how can I clean the inside?"

I think it's no secret why she didn't ask me how to actually USE the darn thing.
