Loading ...I just got off the phone with an indian woman called “Christina” she had quite a typical indian accent. She was phoning on behalf of Three the mobile network I switched to a few days ago. Just to check up and see if I had any problems or anything.
This isn’t the first time this has happened… last week I got a call from an indian man called “Jonathan” who tried to get me to upgrade my bank account.
This seems to be a new trend. For some reason British companies think that if they give their indian call centre staff in Mumbai more… western… names people will fail to notice their thick indian accents it’s like “putting a napkin on your erection”
Jonathan… haha yah… more like Barvinder Singh.
haha! we do the same thing here in pakistan too, its not just india. Call centre industry is flourishing here too.

funny that. I know an indian guy called Ryan. And another called Thomas. and one called Ronald.
I knew an Indian priest called Father Joseph, a piano teacher named Elizabeth and an electrician named Jacob.
This is stupid. Indian people have normal names too you know. They’re not all Adityas, Sudeeps, and Abinovs.
I think abdul is just jealous on two counts
Christina and Jonathon both have jobs
and they don’t share a name with Abdul Rahman Yasin, one of the FBI’s most wanted men.
