I live in New York. The story is that a young English woman comes to New York on vacation. Meets people and has a great time. when it's time for her to leave someone suggests she look for a job. In those days if you had a job you could get a green card pretty easily. She goes to a job agency and gets offers right away.
She gets a job at a prestigious firm. The bosses tell her it's because her English accent is really classy and improves their image.
The joke is that at home people would know that her accent is not posh at all, but to New Yorkers she sounds like Lady Diana
Same in China where some companies hire an English-speaking white dude as a mascot to tag along with executives to give them a more prestigious, international look.
Like the old TV show "Remington Steele."
Female private eye creates a fictional male boss so people will take her agency seriously. Pre-Bond Pierce Brosnan played the stooge.
There was an episode of Scrubs wherein the female doctor Elliott was given a sexist patient. The patient assumed from her gender that she was a nurse, so she invented a fictional male doctor named Elliott and claimed that all of her directions were being relayed from that individual.
I don't remember exactly how it panned out. It was only one episode, not a major premise.
After interviewing for a completely different role, I was contacted and told that although I didn’t get the position, the CEO liked me and wanted to bring me on anyway. My role is mostly to keep the CEO company and assist the actual executive assistant. It’s honestly such an easy and enjoyable job, I love it.
Definitely in the "good work if you can find it" bucket
