Yes, she works for a company. Yes, she is a spokesperson for them.
But 'cmon guys. She was having a laugh at herself. Adding a bit of humour into what she does.
Go easy on her. Jeez.
The world is too fucking PC these days. And, too bloody serious on top of it all.
Whenever someone starts going off about "PC", you just know a quality take is about to follow.
Down vote me all you like mate, but life will be shit without a laugh or two.
I really should have mentioned political correctness after my statement about the world being too serious. As an adjunct to that sentence.... but it's done, so....
Anyhow, I'm not justifying any racism. I'm laughing at the same thing she was because I understand where she was coming from; and I know I'm not alone.
I've had the pleasure of working in a four different countries mixing with cultures where people make fun of themselves for a laugh. It's not uncommon in the world. The problem is some people are too sensitive.
That's my "quality take".
