Looks like Scooter has been teaching a lot of people lol
This is not to sound racist or anything but damn, I cannot stand speaking to people in other countries that I can't understand, especailly in my business where I have to help some clients with stuff and the companies are outsourced for everything and we need answers quick on how to resolve issues. Was trying to help a client for 4 hours yesterday to get documentation for some issues from American Express, except Amex has the department in India, could not undertsand a friken word they were saying and my client was actually from India lol. No wonder Amex is such a pain in the arse to deal with. We even tried calling back later and kept getting the same person there, that or they all sound the same, pretty sad when one of my Commercial clients is from India and he was trying to get answers over the phone and couldn't figure it out either.
Then I was at Dunkin Dougnuts today, got my order wrong twice, like they do everytime, b/c they can never understand what your saying through the speaker lol. I asked for a medium iced coffe and toasted bagel and cream cheese. I ended up witha a Hot coffe, an caramal coffe something, and bacon egg and cheese sandwish.....lol.
Then I had a bunch of people call me today on some properties, could not understand a single word they were saying, it was like half engrish half spangrish, I had a buddy of mine fluent in a couple languages call them back and he couldn't figure out what they were asking for, I told him if he could figure out what they want the deals are his. The Realtor sent them to me b/c he couldn't understand any of them.
Then I had to call the IRS for an EIN number for another LLC, again, couldn't not understand what the heck the guy was saying, he had to repeat everything over and over b/c I was like "huh?!?" I had some questions on some stuff and finally had to hang up on the guy as he wasn't making sense.
