Probably the most refreshing post I've read in a long, long time.

Every word as true as it gets. Just a real shame more folk didn't have the
bollocks to get up and say it - or do other posters actually enjoy speaking
to these pigeon English Indians (who should incidentally be kept 3rd world
IMO as their call-centre employment explosion will have a profound effect
on global warming).

I have a successful company and pay out a bloody fortune to greedy banks
at every single type of transaction. When I have to stomach speaking to them
there's nothing worse than some half-baked Pakistani unable to converse
with me on anything other than the weather.
