Flying home after a business trip in American, Yossi Schiff arrives in Tel Aviv and approaches the customs booth after a long trip.
“What was the purpose of your trip?” the customs agent asks.
“Business,” Yossi replies.
“How long were you away?”
“Seven days.”
“Were you traveling with anyone?”
“I was traveling with my wife,” says Yossi, “But she stayed an extra day with her sister and will be arriving tomorrow.”
Without missing a beat, the officer asks in the same business-like tone: "Will the house be clean by tomorrow? Will the Shabbat flowers be on the table?"
