Wafflehunter already explained it. Stop being cynical. There is no conspiracy theory she's just being professional.
Getting a job when there are not many is like seducing a woman: don't be needy and stay cool. And they come to you i.e. people approach you for a role or ask you to come back.
What do you expect? She saying she's so sad she has to find a new role/job?
Beggars can't be choosers.

Always stay cool no matter what  B)


My post was interpretated the wrong way [originally].

My initial comment was referring to the comment from a link that basically [key word] contradicts the contents of the genre of the show.
Basically, I recieved a wall of text about assumption, wow, so it was time to ask directly, low and behold... another frigging wall with minor comments
that were left open for discussion, if my response comes over as cynical, then that is how it is percieved.

... tell this about urself to everyone u meet and i can guarantee u at least 90% will call u a prick
im actually happy for those that u dismissed, as they just dodged having to work with someone like u


It was a closed question. Meaning a simple Yes/No answer.

As for me referring to the word 'learned' in those documents being dismissed does not mean to say anything about grammer, spelling or comprehension was not being a factor.
It is not my job to argue or explain company policies. Proof reading is standard, so is 'Spellcheck' / 'Grammer Check' when creating the documents. [99% of all software]

... "learnt" and not "learned," but ours uses "learned." Maybe that offends you? Who gives a shit. ....

At the very least, we're not kiwis who are annoying as fuck when they talk.


Well, someone who can establish some history, great, pity alot of dialects got lost over the centuries. Yet we have different English for certain countries even down to Islands.
My remark is not based on offensiveness. It may seem funny to read, but, it is understandable... wait for change and development when a person will say: "Are you a 'learn-ed' person" (who knows, maybe next century).

If the annoying part was in reference to me, then say so, it is comical to include the entire country. I don't think [key word] that you have spoken to many, if any Kiwis.

It's "a lot," not "alot." Two goddamned words. This is a common mistake from people that do not understand "English" and how it is suppose to be used, even in a society that thinks it knows better than the language itself.

I haven't spoken to any kiwis. Their accent is fucking annoying as shit. It's like they got lost on the way to New Zealand from Scotland and took a wrong turn in Australia. I can't stand them. The rest of the English-speaking world can't stand them.

'a lot' and 'alot' is also considered a typing error, not just a general misunderstanding. Whereas, your use of the word 'uses' is worse.
If you have not spoken to any Kiwis', how can you give an opinion on their accent? Is it from watching movies or TV shows that you think this?

Once again comical response. Well... just like wasting time conversing junk till next GoT season... thanks for participating.

u wot m8?

Kiwis don't have movies. Or shows. Why? Because they have the shittiest shift in vowels among any English accent or dialect. No one wants to make a movie where the actors pronounce I's and E's wrong.

Thanks for carrying on the conversation. I am still bored waiting for GoT.

You presume too much with no evidence, Google 'Once Were Warriors' [New Zealand movie] or Google 'Shortland Street' [New Zealand TV series].
Listed those instead of LotR or mentioning Cliff Curtis who is a Kiwi that has acted in many programs / movies.

Pronunciation of I's and E's is not incorrect or wrong, it is the difference between accent that gives it distinction.
Now, if you are talking about the Native language pronouncing vowels, then it is not wrong, it is just a different language.

A = Arh
E = Eh
I = E
O = Orh
U = Ooh [short sount]
