Pinoy Hangout Thread v.11!!

[yoniekai]

Didn't you get a memo for that?

btw yonie, you're not required to wear business attire? Accenture's really strict with it.

you won't get punished for something nobody knows right

accenture is strict on business? uhm, really? well i do wear collared shirts, slacks, leather shoes.... and a bonnet. is that business? 2 weeks ago an american client checked on the floor, he went past me wearing a bonnet, a hood sweater, and a bread bag beside the computer. but then i just said "yo" and we got along fine

 

[baboysai]

they're so strict, and it's mandatory to wear "costume" when visitors and clients come! We're not even allowed to wear flats, even if they're closed shoes. And no hats. >.> Wtf. I thought this was a policy all throughout.

 

[Paper]

My school requires me to wear full business attire. Meaning long-sleeved shirt, tie, jacket, pants, and leather shoes... They also constantly check our grooming (like facial hair, hair, creases, shirts tucked in), so QFT with the QQ on uniforms!

 

[EvilGenious]

@ bb-chan and yonie

Take and make calls? Sounds like a telemarketer to me...but correct me if I'm wrong!

this is why i love teleperformance, on convergys or other sites i wouldn't be able to dress like that, but its so lax in TP. where else can you find a center that feels more like a resort than an office? i mean you enter the place, there's the lounging room, and the walls are glass and you can see the pool and the hotel outside, and outside all you do is smoke, eat, sit with koreans at the bar or stare at them swimming. and goddamn the koreans are so hot. but their trainors are 3x hotter. im telling you, best workplace evar

@EG: i dont know, dont telemarketers call the people instead? me, people call me for issues and i assist in troubleshooting their internet connection (at&t)

 

[EvilGenious]

@yonie....

Oh, ok...so you do troubleshooting...I like that better than telemarketers...although I always have trouble with the people from Western Union...

 

[duchess of dork]

i hate it when my brother hogs the puter, i went the whole day without a click on the mouse---i hope heavens open up tonight and drop me some kick ass laptop <i dont mind a notebook>....

-Err... Ever listen to Filipino ones? They're equally funny (stuff like: Becoss, burjer, hatdog, choob, wan, to, tree, por, paib, and so many more...)

bisaya ones are better. tootbras, plorwax --> manutbras, mamlorwax, manabon.

"t" first before "h", like length, strength...

and you see salons advertise "P1995 hair rebonding - any lenght"...

re: mispronunciation, mispelling
mispelling is ok with me...i do it all the time, and sometimes dont bother going over what i have done na--

here, whats funnier is misnomerism<?>, taking brand names for the product name--

eg1: manang, pabili ng colgate, ang beam na malaki lang ha
2: pa-xerox <<<<<my staple phrase
3: oi, cute ng cutex mo-

any words on that?

---

btw, which one is correct being pronounced--traysikel or traysikol?

 

[hunter71485]

tray-say-kewl.

my tech writing prof literally went nuts when he discussed misnomerism with us.

P.S. his breakfast is always, ALWAYS a hotdog and two eggs. no kidding.

 

[duchess of dork]

DAVIE-kuu-, here we go agen----

hnn--leading me on that ...er... green--- zone agen... ---------------

re: tray-say-kewl
you're tagalog--isnt it? how do you commonly pronounce it in your dialect?as incorporated in our language, dont tagalogs pronounce it as treysikel? we ilonggos pronounce it tray-si-kol... a good story comes with that, showing how ilonggos the tagalogs on that matter...

---

an ilonggo and a tagalog were riding on the frontrow passenger side of the pedicab

ilonggo: ...buzz...buzz......traysikol
alog: correction, its treysikel
ilonggo: <throws an annoyed look at mate>

BLAg! the pedicab came to a sudden halt---
the tagalog mate conked his head on the metal frame by impact and a huge bump formed on his head-----

Spoiler

ilonggo: <flashes a very wide impish grin pointing at the hump> hah! teh, alog, ano na tawag mo---- bukel? mwahahahahah!!!

fin

 

[hunter71485]

I dunno about others, but i try to pronounce it the way i like it. when people don't understand me, i blatantly exaggerate the tagalog pronounciation: TRAAY-SI-KEL(h)! /stick tongue out

an ilonggo and a tagalog were riding on the frontrow passenger side of the pedicab ...

tha's old, dod. older than old school.

and my (former)prof is the gay type that SHRIEKS at every movement. masungit, mataray at proud to be atenean. (bah, humbug!) got replaced by someone better (though worse at grammar, but better in personality) when he had one of his "periods".

 

[duchess of dork]

u-huh? sthatso? ehehe....

nyways, do you guys find gays so annoying? i kinda find them amusing. i wonder if brilliance made them that way--most hommes are intellectually above average

 

[hunter71485]

they are. that's what makes them annoying.

 

[duchess of dork]

y naman? is being quickwitted so annoying? does that annoyance also apply to the female specie on the same instance?

 

[hunter71485]

females are female, males who thinks they're female are an anomaly.

Spoiler: btw, what can you say about this?

 

[Paper]

@Hunter- 2 eggs and a hotdog every morning? I wonder what he eats for dinner...

But on a serious note... Does your prof have a deathwish? His heart is probobly wrapped in lard by now...

@DoD- I find decent gays ok, the annoying ones who have high-pitched voices, lisps, and act feminine irritate me.

 

[hunter71485]

damn advanced editor, i had to correct my post again...

@l4pb
what's even more annoying is he EATS in our morning class. in the classroom. with the NO eating, drinking, food sign behind him.

 

[Paper]

Hehehehe... He likes being watched while eating a hotdog and two eggs...

 

[baboysai]

2: pa-xerox <<<<<my staple phrase

xerox is accepted now though. It's not a misnomer anymore. I was told that during a copyreading seminar. So yeah, I guess it works.

But I had the habit of really using the word photocopy instead.

 

[Paper]

@BB- It's not accepted, it's TOLERATED... Why? Because even the yanks are using the term, making it "all good"...

 

[Pirulito]

Even the orgasmic graphics don't give you uh... wait, nvm.

depends on how this graphic is orgasmic which you have in mind, hehehehe.

But, seriously, the games nowadays aren't good in diversion as the games of old

How is Full Moon? I haven't read it yet, and it's quite popular, isn't it? Are the scans complete?

Full moon is about a girl called Mitsuki who is a talented singer and dreams of becoming a pop idol, but she is afflicted with sarcoma, which is curable only through a surgery that could cost her vocal cords and her ability to sing.
One day she is visited by two shinigami whom only she can see . Without knowing Mitsuki can see and hear them, they accidentally mention she only has one year left to live.

But she make a deal with a shinigami, Takuto, if she goes quietly when her one year is up, he will help her become a singer so that she may leave the world without any regrets.

It's interesting...the scans are complete...31 chapters only.

Does anybody read blade of the immortal? is it any good?

It's good. Much blood. ^^

@yonie....

Oh, ok...so you do troubleshooting...I like that better than telemarketers...although I always have trouble with the people from Western Union...

Telemarketing is the worst.
When I worked as telemarketer, I heard all sorts of names.
