“Just tell your boss that Moshiach is calling.”
BS”D
The name Moshiach is not uncommon among Bukharan and Gruzini Jews. I think, however, that I know who this Moshiach is, unless your boss happened to also be Bukharan.
In my old shul in Moscow, we had a Bukharan mekurav whose name is Moshiach and his father’s name is, well, you can guess.
He often got an aliya both because he was a baal tzedoko and for the entertainment value of seeing how people react to Moshiach ben Dovid getting an aliya in a Chabad shul!
