Latest victims of out-sourcing - receptionists!

So Nish...when's your job going to get outsourced to a guy in India? :~

Hilarious!! 1. One step further and the receptionist becomes a generated image and voice and then humans are not needed for reception. 2. One step after that and you are turned into a robot visitor and then humans are not needed at all. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

That's him on the screen, isn't it? I'm the guy sitting just outside the picture boundary, with a cold beer in my hand.

I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

> That's him on the screen, isn't it? For a few moments I was confused too - not just to others, brown people look the same to brown people as well. Then I noticed that he had glasses, so it couldn't be me. That was a huge relief, since I didn't want to be in new Delhi since I don't really speak Hindi all that well. :-D

Of course in the not-too-distant future, having actual human staff will be a sign of utter swank.

I wouldn't normally make this sort of off-color remark (see what I did there?), but since you brought it up: Please tell your buddy to stop calling me about my infected Windows computer. :-D

Yeah sure, all 1 billion of them? :-)

That'd be great, if you don't mind. How does your address book scale like that? :-)

sigh. I liked our receptionist. She should have seen the cut coming though. Even so, I swear to God, if I ever met someone like that as a "receptionist" I'd reach out and rotate the head some iterations of 180 degrees. I mean really, you walk into a business and you're greeted with that? Put some tits on it at least!
