If you've ever been to a handsake event, you'd know it's been 2 seconds, and during those 2 seconds, the shlub in the tan P.I. jacket has been pushing this poor dude away while saying "domo arigato" over and over.
Honestly, handshake events suck pretty badly. But, a fun trick is to start shaking all the security guys hands and thanking them right back. Next time you have a chance, I highly recommend it. ;-)
They're less 'strict' with the girls and kids I think when it comes to hand-shaking events, if I'm not mistaken. Not saying they get more time, but the security is probably less 'worried' with them since they don't have the 'reputation' of the wota.
haha! If I was, I'd be demanding royalties from kulitexd for uploading this photo without my consent.
But, I'm 188cm tall and American. Not undeterminably short and Asian. So, sorry, no dice. :-)
I wouldn't mind having that huge Mano bag, though.
I've just been to a few "shakers" in my day, so I know what they are usually like.
