It would be interesting to know which version of English you consider to be 'standard' or 'good'. Do you talk about speakers of other English versions with such bile? How about Spanish, which version is 'good'?

I also find it interesting that you confuse acceptance of reality with ignorance. I would think the desire for a Utopia where everyone conforms to convention is the epitome of ignorance.

It is interesting that you use 'standard' interchangeably with 'good'.

Anyway, as Chinese Pod is not up to your standard, and will not be changing, I guess you'll be leaving soon.

I agree, well done. But I would like to see you show a bit more of your own personality. Was it scripted by John? - It almost seemed like it was John speaking through a voice-synthesiser. That's not a negative of course, and perhaps you will start to show a bit more of yourself as you begin to feel more comfortable with the job.

So asking for our first male-speaking role-model, when we have just been given our second female-speaking one, is sexist is it? Perhaps my asking for a native Chinese speaker was being racist? Perhaps Chinese Pod is being sexist for never choosing a male native speaker for the lowest 4 levels. Where does this sort of ridiculous assessment stop?

I wish you would have chosen a male Chinese native speaker.
