We can talk about life, the universe, and everything...

Like today, in my class, it was the first half of our reports on programming language. One of the speakers was the Chinese guy. Who speaks English badly, with a really, really thick accent. And was speaking on Cobol. And loves Cobol. And proceeded to share his love of Cobol - badly - for 25 minutes. Now that is pain.

This is very not PC of me. But we have a Chinese guy working in our building who 1) doesn't speak English very well and 2) is clueless. For some reason he thinks that what he is doing has to be reported to ME. I have nothing to do with his projects and it's not even in my division.

I've tried to handle it by just forwarding his e-mails to his supervisor. But yesterday he corned me in my office with "what do I do with this report." Before it was over I was practically screaming IT'S NOT MY JOB!!!!

He still didn't get it.
