We were talking about Czech Republic, which is even further West. I am really tired of arguing with these conceited and brainwashed people.Originally posted by Scruff View PostPoland is certainly not Eastern Europe, it is further west than Greece? Most of the Polish people that I know have a far higher level of Education than the majority of folk that I come across on a daily basis...If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.Comment

What a tool. Whoever these people are, they are far too good to be working with you. You have problem dealing with your cognitive dissonance, no wonder it makes you feel uncomfortable.Originally posted by Troll View PostNot my recruits - if they were a basic level of competency in spoken English would be a pre-req... also got some Poles on the call.... they make the Czechs look good....Last edited by mos; 2 April 2014, 08:29.If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.Comment

Talk to the people who issued it. I cannot stand this ugly environment, where people get so obsessed about Eastern Europe that it completely clouds their judgement and stops everybody from going about their jobs.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostTiredness to casual racism in 7 posts.

Czech Republic and Poland might be "quite far west", but grab a map. Look at Europe. It has historically been said that Europe ends (and Asia begins) at the Bosphorus. Take that as extreme east. Spain, Portugal, UK, Ireland and France are to the west. Draw a line down the middle between these points.Originally posted by mos View PostWe were talking about Czech Republic, which is even further West.

Most, if not all, of Czech Republic is in the east, all of Poland is, a bit of Germany is.Comment

If you are defending lost causes against your Czech and Polish counterparts, just because you don't want to admit that you were wrong, then no wonder you will have issues which lead toOriginally posted by Ticktock View PostCzech Republic and Poland might be "quite far west", but grab a map.

My advice to you is to continue working with Bobs, if you are so comfortable doing so. We will work with someone who can recognise and appreciate quality. Wasting time and energy on pointless, racially motivated grievances is wrong. Life is too short.Last edited by mos; 2 April 2014, 10:09.If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.Comment

What "lost causes" am I defending, and where was I wrong?
What do you mean by Bob? An offshored, low-skilled resource? That's what was pointed out - that the offshore partners in eastern Europe were low skilled. If you want to cry out that your race is superior to others then go ahead.Comment
