Thats not what racism means
I second that.
people are racist, discriminate, and yes are bias in IB
1) In a client based job your appearance and how you speak obviously matters 2) You don't have prefect grammar
On the upside, you being dumb will decrease your chances more!
The irony
1) "In a client based job" is a dependent or introductory clause, which means that you need a comma immediately after. 2) You misspelled "perfect". 3) Your username indicates that you reside in a flyover country. 4) It is pretty obvious that my appearance and the way I speak will matter; I was simply asking how much it would matter. Your comment added 0 value to the thread, just as your existence added 0 value to the earth. 5) Congrats on getting even closer to a 1:2 banana to monkey shit ratio. I'm happy that you found a forum to lash out against the world and make you feel a little bit less miserable. 6) I doubt that I'd be considered "dumb" by most, considering that I received perfect marks throughout school, participated in International Math Olympiad, and achieved a 2380 on the SAT even after not learning English until I was well into my teenage years.
Well, I'm not the one claiming to have perfect grammar! I'm also not the one caring about a "banana to MS ratio" or getting mad over a comment on a forum and in my defense bragging about being in a math olympiad and having perfect grades HAHAHA.
Noticed multiple grammar mistakes, so focus on that before making "racism" claims :)

For many senior bankers, perfection is expected. It’s expected in everything from a PowerPoint slide to how formulate sentences.
It’s not racism but yes having an accent/ grammatical errors will definitely affect your ability to produce at the level that’s expected.
