This is their 'export' range, there are more, but no cars.
If the quality of their cars is on par with their off shore software
developers, than we better stay away from these 'cars'.

I've worked with Indians (the ones with the target on their
forehead...) and found them to be ok....but a giant pain in the ass.

The worst thing in the world (well maybe not the worst) is to have a
problem....call tech support....and get that friggin accent....LOL
It's tough over the phone when I can't watch their lips, but in person I
would rather talk to an Indian that almost anyone else with a pronounced
foreign accent. I just love their pronounciations and they way they sound.
Indians have the most lyrical and enjoyable accents of almost anyone I can
think of.

Eastern Europeans, on the other hand are tough for me to converse with
even if I'm staring them right in the eyes.

They make non practical vehicles along with Rokstar jeeps, that come
with factory rust and petrol engines that are more economical and usable
than a diesel. And even the petrol engines are poor.

Hey Hack how is your job search coming?

Still waiting to hear from 2 interviews I went on (one was very promising
with a second interview) and three more I forwarded resumes to.


From following your posts, I'd be proud to have you working for me. I
think you would be an outstanding employee!

I'll be right down!!!
Knock very damned quietly and politely Hachi...the sob is armed
to the teeth!...
