In response to Passports and skin colour are all-important (Jack Kanoi)

Hi! Although I agree with you in some cases,not all in other cases.How about those people with skin problems for instance,like Michael Jackson,those people with skin disease like "albinos",they are white skinned,mind you?but am not sure if they will be accepted as esl teachers.The bottom line is "talent",SKA[skills,knowledge&attitude]...they go hand in hand...like horse&carriage,like love&marriage...as the song goes...White skin,will wrinkle&sag,but talent will not,it's not because you are born in africa,by accident,does not mean you do not have a place in this world.What I'm trying to say is"you have to learn how to live with it"....
P.S> re:Call Centers :? :? :?
Mind you,since these call centers started,it created a lot of havoc to all people around the globe.Imagine one person is making a long distance call to a place in scotland&operator does not know where scotland is???got me??? :D :D :D
