The survey was a huge failure because of the following:

1. In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
2. In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
3. In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
4. In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
5. In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
6. In South Africa they didn't know what "please" meant.
7. In the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
8. In Australia they hung up as soon as they heard the Indian accent.
Pretty good.

About once a week we get a phone call or email from another company in India that wants us to have them do our mapping. It is sometimes quite funny how bad the English is in the email. I keep explaining that I like having a job and have no intention of sending my job to them.
