Anecdotes of an (English) acquaintance (2 of 2): His current job.

So, my one (English) acquaintance's job is helping Syrian refugees, and the other day he was doing intake.

And, his client's name was "Jihad."

"From now on, you'll be 'Jerry'," he was like.

When I asked, he then explained to me that the name "Jihad" isn't uncommon, you don't come across it too often, but it's around, kind of like the name "Ralph" in English.
