Good for Hayabusa this place is crazier than one flew over the cuckoo's nest.
Making a statement that implies that every single Indian defecates outdoors is a little racist. As someone who is actually Indian, only the poorest(which admittedly, do make up a significant % of the population) do this. And anyone who is qualified enough to work at a call centre definitely doesn't.
If I accuse all white Americans of having sex with their sisters, because some uneducated ones in rural southern US do so, won't you be offended?
I actually find it more offensive that you are doing the best you can to minimize what is a pretty big problem in India. India floats dead bodies down the same rivers many drink from and have long refused to have indoor toilets for largely cultural reasons. Until the country better address those issues, sure, you can call me racist but maybe you should work on fixing your shit (pun intended) first.
That costs you a trip to the toilet (and back), a 10 second wait, and 4 gallons of water. If I see "Unlisted number" on my cordless's display, I simply don't answer.Use cordless phones
When telemarketer calls answer and walk to toilet
Hold phone to toilet and flush
My thinking is usually that if an Asian has an American sounding first name their accent will be distinctly American. However, if it's not, I don't hold it against them. When I get really annoyed with weird English accents is when I can't understand them, either because their accent is so horrific as to be incomprehensible or their English and/or comprehension of the topic is fractured or lacking to the point where it's clearly a waste of my time.Lots of Asians have American first names so their names are like Mark Hoshikawa or Jim Ichitachi. But I guess many of them were born and raised in the U.S.. which is going off topic a bit. Ok...then why don't the parents change their last names to something American like Stanfield or Wilson? (end of insensitive remarks to stir up trouble)
