A Welsh Of Knowledge
(I work in a call center that only calls the local area.)
Me: “Hello, sir, I’m just calling about–”
Customer: “What country are you calling from?”
Me: “Me? Wales, sir.”
Customer: “Don’t give me that. All of you people are based in India or something.”
Me: “I assure you, we’re not, sir. I’m not Indian; I’m based in Wales.”
Customer: “Sure you are! You companies are all the same.” *in Welsh* “I bet we don’t even speak the same language.”
Me: *in Welsh* “Sir, I’m not Indian. I’m in an office probably no more than ten minutes from you right now.”
Customer: “You know, for an Indian, you have excellent pronunciation.”
