Apr 5th, 2017: Wong… James Wong

He may look like a average 41 year old man, but he’s taking over the position of the most widely
read writer in the world. He’s the new fortune cookie writer at New York's Wonton Food.

Indeed, one of Wong's goals is to churn out as many new fortunes as possible. One of the chief complaints
the company gets, he says, is too many repeat fortunes. He says he's been jotting down ideas on scraps
of paper whenever they come to him. "It could be on anything," he said. "I do have a collection of gum
wrappers and napkins and even toilet paper."

You might think it’s a dull job but sometimes it’s more interesting.

"A middle aged couple was having dinner before the man was supposed to go off to a business trip, and
the fortune that he received was, 'Romance is in the air for your next trip.'
That definitely was not a good thing," Wong says.

The pair eventually divorced, and Wonton Food got a call from the woman's lawyer.
"Apparently, they were already having trouble with their marriage and the wife blames everything that
went wrong in their marriage on us."

Well, she needed somebody to blame. Amiright!
