As soon as you get PIPed

I contract at non-fagman F500, I've been given a team lead login and password across the entire company network simply because Pajeets from admin (literally located in India) took a month to give me my own and it didn't work when I've got it.
Wanna know the funniest thing? I do a security contract there.

Yes

Poor troll has no fresh posts from Sam to read so he must post on //gg//.

How much should I spend on a webcam for job interviews?
My uni stressed its important to be good quality, and knowing HR roasties, I think it will matter.

I worked with SAR, Israeli and Romanian subsidiaries in that company. I still hate pajeets the most.

lighting is more important
but also if you're interviewing with HR sluts you're probably doomed anyway

You can get a high end Logitech web cam for like $50-100 that should last you many years, just do that

i don’t hate indians. i hate how they’re universally bad at english regardless of how long they’ve lived here.

go outside and flirt with a girl who can't fire you if you fart when you cum

I do, at least Indians from India. A rancid combination of completely autistic and bureaucratic. For example, Jews from Israel speak about the same level of English, but are much easier to deal with.
