How interesting that no Filipinos will work like dogs, a la some American guys sleeping under desks.
They will but only in lowly jobs and then they are always doing what they can get away with when you aren't monitoring them every second. In short, they look out for themself.
They just don't think the greatest thing since sliced bread is working night and day coding. If they do it is for gaming, then yes they are very addictive and do it night and day.
In short, filipinos love to play, and for them hunkering down to do a non-social isolation job is not fun. Whereas, I love doing this "hiding in my cave coding never see the light of day for two months".
My gf thinks I am very odd not to take showers for up to months. (and I was not like that in my youth, as I am not European, I am American and we take showers every day) She does note I do not have body odor and she likes my smell, so I guess we are okay here, lol

I did not contact the European
tromp. Probably a guy I should have tried to recruit. Any way, as I said, I stopped as of yesterday trying to find someone to collaborate with.
