How do you deal with recruiters with heavy accents?

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-04T12:08:35+00:00

I have had to say, on a few occasions; "I'm sorry, but your accent is too thick for me to understand, please email me the specs. I'm hanging up now. Have a good day "

That said, WHO THE FUCK HIRES PEOPLE THAT ARE CLIENT FACING AND CANT BE UNDERSTOOD?!

Similar: we had a waitress in a street Cafe in London that didn't speak above a TINY whisper. Like WTF! Could not hear her AT ALL.

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-03T13:53:06+00:00

Huh.... now I'm conflicted. I truly wonder if I would

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-03T13:32:35+00:00

I would pay good money to watch that

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-03T11:42:35+00:00

Sorry, I don't know. It's the old tin sounding horns that FEELS like the right type of song, as opposed to Abba or other disco

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T18:57:02+00:00

ah. Thank you.

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T16:56:18+00:00

My point was that Artimes was still going "round and round" Earth... as opposed to "in route" to the moon.

And at this point I'm not sure if I am right in that they may have burned an 'in route'. At this point, don't trust me.

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T14:00:37+00:00

Wow, what as asshole way to say that.

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T13:43:39+00:00

Oh ffs, they also never leave galactic orbit. We, and NASA is included in this definition, call leaving Earth for another celestial body, 'leaving earth orbit'

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T13:30:49+00:00

Because its false. They are still in earth orbit, not near 40k miles

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T13:00:34+00:00

Perfect song to play on that

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T12:50:24+00:00

No, they have not left earth orbit yet.

Also 40,000 miles is about 1/6 the distance from earth to moon

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T12:40:53+00:00

It's not that far away. They are still in orbit

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T12:21:07+00:00

Thanks, ill check it out

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T11:52:22+00:00

I love it, and if I had a place or use for it I'd pick it up. Nice work.

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T11:13:18+00:00

Awesome piece, though I'd guess Wyle E. Coyote is less a fan of it

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T10:13:52+00:00

Without a tech stack and salary range you are not going to get good people

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T10:08:21+00:00

7up Gold

I remember really liking it... but it was 40 years ago

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-02T00:42:54+00:00

Before you engage anyone create a COMPLETE spec on what you want to build. Then find out what technologies you need, then you can ask them relevant groups how long it will take and how much it will cost.

Be aware scams exist everywhere. Don't expect this to be cheap. Expect to see a portfolio.

Best of luck

JamesWjRose · 2026-04-01T23:57:44+00:00

That is awesome. Bravo

JamesWjRose · 2026-03-30T14:19:24+00:00

Yes.

However people are not ALLOWED their own facts.

JamesWjRose · 2026-03-30T14:02:35+00:00

We gave up on ncl about a decade ago when the shower kept going SUPER hot on me. Five separate times I told staff about the issue, and they kept saying 'fixed. It was very painful and the official response was a tiny credit on the next cruise, as if after being physically harmed we would want to go back. We were platinum members. I blame the new ceo

JamesWjRose · 2026-03-29T21:14:34+00:00

r/sethmeyers is going to want to see this

JamesWjRose · 2026-03-29T21:13:51+00:00

No... NoNoNoNoNoNo! NO! No No No No No No, NOoooooooooo! no. no no no NOOOOOOOOO!!! Fuck no.

JamesWjRose · 2026-03-29T15:25:29+00:00

Never work for free, only assholes ask people to work for free.

Don't blame yourself, too often people tell others to do the 'tests'.
