I’m a Mandarin phone interpreter.
A police officer calls in, asks me to assist with translating through speakerphone at an allegedly illegal massage parlor. Officer tells me two of the masseuses there offered sexual favors in exchange for cash by a plainclothes officer who visited earlier, so now the police are there to arrest them.
The first masseuse denied everything, the second masseuse is where things got interesting.
(PO - police officer, M - masseuse)
PO: A plainclothes officer was here earlier, and you offered to give him a handjob in exchange for cash.
M: Yes yes probably gesturing too at the same time because of what the PO said next
PO: No, no I think she misunderstood what I just said. It looks like she thinks I want a handjob, tell her I don’t want that. And please repeat what I said earlier to her, and ask if she understands.
M: no response
Me: Sir, I’m getting no verbal response
PO: That’s fine. Let her know I’m putting her under arrest now reads Miranda rights
So yep. By far the most memorable conversation I’ve had to assist with.
