You mean you'll speak German so that my head can live? That'd be "Ich werde Deutsch sprechen, so dass dein Kopf leben kann."

close enough...
but now you see the point of, it doesn't work

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

just haven't really practiced it much today, sooo I felt like throwing some German in

 

[grinsekatze666]

yay
then don't do it again.

Oh i get used to it. I have to speak English on my job a lot. Imagine a german tech-support-callcenter-dude trying to tell a chinese guy he's not responsible for his Laptop not getting into a mexican network. At seven in the morning. Before coffee. THAN you know what language barriers are about.

been working on that :]

Even more fun is getting people form India spelling their names in english. Listen carefully - write it down - and after about sixteen minutes you get a name consisting of at least 78 letters looking like "Varamaphaattamahaghathi" and your computer says "INVALID". I love my job.

German grammar is like the tenses in English, only five times worse.

I guess that's at least amusing, once you get past the frustration...

Yup. In my company, people doing the tech-support-hotline are considered to be somehow "special". I'd love to say we're just normal people doing their job, but that's definitely NOT true. My team consists of five people which I love and hate at the same time. We're special.

If you get bored you can always change to finnish. That's about seventeen times worse.
