Makes me feel better about vetoing an Indian candidate the one time I was given any measure of influence over a hiring decision for my team. The fucking accent alone was bad enough that I did not want that guy on our team no matter how good he was technically. If we cannot understand what our database administrator is even saying then there's going to be problems.
You should be proud. You probably saved your company a lot of trouble.
Not really. I'm a federal contractor and last I heard that contract turned into a smoldering crater shortly after I and the last two other competent members of the team departed. But hey, at least they have a shitty incompetent Chinese DBA instead of an Indian one. None of us got a say on that one and we're not sure how he managed to get hired.
We're still hearing stories about that guy through our vendor contacts almost four years on...
Ah, I know the feeling. I left my contract shortly before it turned into a wall to wall shitshow as well.
