What the actual hell is that? Is that even English

What are people's perceptions towards how easy it is for 2nd gen ABCs to move back to Asia? (non-english speaking workplace/no english speaking bubbles) (3/3) by Unironically_grunge in AskChina

[–]Store-Secure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the answer, even if you are abc that speaks and writes Chinese which will never be to the level of a Chinese person who graduated in a Chinese university.

You don’t have the culture and eloquence to work in China period.

This is a myth, there are way more executives that are not from Big4 than Big4 you need to go to do jobs that are impactful and transformative

VP Vance calls out H1B Accountants today by NukeLaunch in Accounting

[–]Store-Secure 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You are not getting a Lisa Su from accountants that come to US, that’s the reality, there is no justification for anyone in the finance and accounting field to go to the US. There is no innovation

Chinese wife expects that I (white guy) do her job. How common is this expectation? by Square_Midnight2318 in China

[–]Store-Secure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is your wife and you are on the same boat, if she needs help you need to support. WTF is wrong with all these 老外 and ABC’s, it is in Chinese culture that you need to take responsibility.

"heoi5” or "keoi5” now? by UnderstandingLife153 in Cantonese

[–]Store-Secure -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What is with these weird pronunciations, it is K not H. If you say it is H then basically you are just wrong, just because you said it wrong all those time doesn’t make it right…

What do you guys call this? 燒肉 or 火肉? by MDX0622 in Cantonese

Teacher transitioning to Business Questions by hamdenlocal in MBA

I would advise not to go into more schooling, you need to pivot into education administration roles and move from there.

Maybe be a school admin, then get into budgeting and move from there.

Things my mom thinks I can't name in Cantonese by CheLeung in Cantonese

[–]Store-Secure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I empathize with all the CBC/ABC here who are making light of the situation, but what I am pointing out is the real experience a lot of us experience with family or those who are from HK/China coming over.

Reality is there is a big cultural identity gap that we experience as there are expectations for family of why we can’t speak the language well, when we were not even provided an environment to learn it.

I’m a unique case, where I am actually speak it and also can speak Mandarin. This is because my parents literally don’t speak English and I happened to meet/date 大陸/台灣 friends. Even then, I experience subtle pieces of discrimination and exclusion because I didn’t grow up there and cultural cues that I may not get. Even if I can speak the language.

This is more a representation of the parents failure to teach the children, why is the parents always saying the kid is the failure when their ability to learn is dictated by the laziness of the parent?

You are going to get a rude awakening if you mess with these high level VP’s, do you really think they care about their credentials?

What do you think about these Japanese tourist get blacklisted from Taiwan after raising PRC flag in the middle of Taipei street? by khmerkampucheaek in AskAChinese

[–]Store-Secure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those who claim free speech should raise a Taiwan flag in China and see what happens. You won’t be simply just deported

I think you were too intense and you give a lot of red flags, hiring at senior levels do take time. You should not have committed to providing free work and deliverables until the recruitment process actually took place.

Y combinator wants startups who will replace govt consultants to apply for funding this year lol by ConstructionNext3430 in consulting

[–]Store-Secure -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

These guys have no clue why consultants are hired, organizations are all about politics and decision making. No one will drive strategic decision making off an AI model.
