: Sorry to hear that you have not been in this country long enough

Boy, Hank, you're a sharpie. You smoked me out. That standard joke really did the trick. I should have recognized that from all the times I watch Leno and Letterman. Yes, I am a non-Green card Indian. My real name is Sanji Gupta. I was brought here after my post-graduate work in India to work for Oracle in Worldwide Technical Support. I was fired after 3 months for suggesting that we non-citizen Indians be paid what the citizens were making. I was told that if they had to pay me what they paid the citizens, they never would have brought me over in the first place. I am glad I am out now, but do still hold a grudge that they think they can treat their H1 Indian employees in a sub-standard manner. I was not impressed with the management there, and feel that they are the types who need cheap foreign labor in order to cover up their ineptness.

: Please follow up to appropriate news groups. comp.databases.oracle

: Your continual posting of inane comments is an annoyance to those of
: us who use this newsgroup for it's intended purpose.

I have come to love this country Hank, but I do find you white men to be a bit whiney. I think if you were to travel the world and taste other cultures, you would be a better man. If fact, I encourage you to scale Mt. Everest, in the winter. The experience would give you the strength and tolerance to read through a newsgroup without going "wah wah" if you see a post or two you don't care for. You may also want to try chugging a quart of the hottest curry sauce you can find. Good luck and God bless you my good man.
