Thank god for im at work.

We have one weekly conf call where there's people from our Bangalore office participating, and no one on the call understands just what the fuck they are saying. "What was that?" can only be asked once or twice, and then the call organizer just gives up and says "OK, thanks, moving on....".

I have a weekly call like that too. Sounds like birds chirping & warbling.

Damn this thread. I just got off the phone with an Indian developer in our Fort Lauderdale office and the entire time I was picturing his head bobbling back and forth.

He was picturing you in a thong.

I think you got the better deal.

After about a week in Bangalore, I find myself doing it too. Drives me nuts.

Holy fuck - do you listen in on my end-of-day calls too?
