Jeff's comment was about the _accent_. Had it been about the tech support workers not being able to speak English, I wouldn't have touched it with a ten foot pole. You've read way too much into my exchange with Jeff so I'm leaving the rest of your e-mail untouched (except the very end). > Oh the capiche remark was his attempt at being cute. (your comment > was uncalled for, Jeff's capiche remark was directed at me. (Perhaps, unintentionally but,) it came across to _me_ as condescending. Hence my comments; and I dismissed it with an 'I don't care "whatever ..."' IMHO, it was his remark that was uncalled for. > not start an ethnic war over a comment that was a reflection of poor > hiring practices and the shipment overseas of all sorts of computer > support jobs. Oh, really? Please go back and check. His comment was about accents and knives. And, he said "No, I *don't* have a problem with overseas tech support." ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
