[7 - No tomorrow]

Dude's Asian.

Could be tricky.

 

[travispickle]

About half my company.

They work hard and they are happy about it. They volunteer. They go to the gym.
They are extremely reliable. If you ask them to do something, it gets done. Just the way you asked.
They actually care about clients and the image of the company.


I am living in the Matrix.

Fuckin' hell. Is this somewhere like Canada? lolz.

 

[CinnamonBoy]

Spike the rum and turn them into degenerates who retch at the thought of going to a gym or volunteering to help bums.

Sounds great I'd love to work there.

 

[Jill Hives]

Ditto.

Make him some home brew red wine called Khmer Rouge.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Make him some home brew red wine called Khmer Rouge.

So it's offensive whether he's Cambodian or not? Interesting.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

I live in a country where this is considered offensive by the ethnicity it references, and by most others.

But the people referenced here

get tattoos of it

 

[Hector Grey]

White privilege, dude.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

White privilege, dude.

I know. You're right.


I could live without one more "Of the Irish are such drunks and love fighting reference" though.

 

[therealjohnny]

I saw this earlier and it occurred to me that these days most Irish people try to play down the pub 'culture' aspect of Ireland

But they are stupid and I'd beat the shit out of them given the chance

 

[Jill Hives]

I plan to relish being Irish and continuing on the pub culture.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Everyone from my great-grandfather on down has drank in here

 

[Cormcolash]

They actually care about clients and the image of the company.

Well, at least I get to feel superior to them because I know what a load of shit all that is!

 

[Cormcolash]

I'm working on training program for a certain supermarket chain in the states...they all greet their team leader by saying "Good morning.., teamwork whooo!" as they stamp and bang the tables in unison

This sort of thing is the reason films like American Beauty exist and the reason there is so much gun crime in that country.

 

[Hector Grey]

Our kids will just download the Genuine Dublin Pub Experience app.

 

[rettucs]

I think I'm the biggest asshole in my workplace. Not an obnoxious asshole, moreso an asshole that tries to avoid any interaction.

except lately this girl from brasil joined and all she wants to do is talk about sex.

I'm happy to interact with her

 

[therealjohnny]

I don't talk to anyone at work either. I don't know if that makes me an asshole.
A few of them are facebook friends and I'm constantly surprised that they are still in touch with people who worked here ten years ago and they still socialise with each other. Some of them even married each other.

I just don't get it. It's just a job.
