Why is it that all the best jobs are being handed to people with a certain accent? Why the discrimination against the rest of us? Enough, already. When it gets to the point that we have to fake the desired accent you know something's wrong.
Let the rest of us have a chance.

Ive come across Britishphobia twice in my K-areer - both times I was asked to speak with an American accent.
First time I told them to go and *beep* themselves - they shut up after that.
Second time I told them to go and *beep* themselves at the interview - and still got the job.
Accdents is like everything else in this place - window dressing to hide the disorganization and clusterfookery. |

Many of them actually think the English language comes from the United States.  |
