This part is a bit misleading in that it implies the immigration people unearthed my secret by some sort of shrewd detective work like calling up my workplace and simply asking if they could talk to me. In fact, in the letter the company sent with me to the immigration office, my boss mentioned that I'd been working there for two weeks. There was no need for anyone at the immigration office to call anyone at my office.
     Truth be told, my boss was far too busy to write a letter for me so I wrote the letter myself and had him sign it.
     And the part about me not having the heart to tell her I'd have to go to each museum twenty times to justify a three month tourist visa wasn't true either. This is exactly what I told her. She didn't get the joke. At least not enough to allay my vindictiveness.
