Brazilians do sound fuckin strange. They can't help speaking through their nose.
It's a Portuguese thing. Nasal is where it's at. They even invented nasal sex.

My buddy is a pilot. He was flying over Austria, ski resort of some sort, and he was talking the guy in the cockpit for about 5mins while flying above. His phone was turned off. When he landed his plane he took the paper work, then turned on his phone to continue filling the data in the app from the company, info about distance, fuel, etc. He had like 15 minutes off so he went on facebook. You know what first sponsored ad was? The same ski resort he talked about when flying over. He never googled about it before. So yeah, it's a fact phone is/can be tracked even when it's turned off, especially now when you have phones that can't take their battery out. Same shit happened to me a couple of times I talked. I was getting recommended stuff that I never googled before about it. Majority of people install apps but nobody reads licence of agreement and that stuff, everyone just auto accepts.
Facebook is about as sinister as they come. But sinister like someone squashing a bug without even knowing it's there.

Played tennis for the first time... And it went better than my badminton.
So trying to bang those kinda chicks now...

Just spent the last half hour on the phone with a woman at my company (works in Sales/ account exec or something) who is hysterical. She is all worried because she has to call an agent back and doesn't know what she is talking about, has zero product knowledge/ operations knowledge and didn't understand the most basic explanation I repeatedly tried to give her.

Pretty sure I broke it down to a simple enough explanation that any functional adult should be able to understand if she would just calm down and shut the fuck up. Now she's complaining to my boss.

She has worked at this company since I was 5 years old.

Women in business are hilarious.

She sounds like she might be on the verge of retirement. Not sure if you deal with anything technical, but some older women can get pretty flustered with technology and stuff like that. It also sounds like maybe she isn't in the right position. But some of the women I know and also work with between 30-50 can run circles around men when it comes to managing people and being professional. So everyone has their strengths.

Hope the complaint doesn't come back on you.
