Assuming your girlfriend is East Asian, as others have noted, it is cultural. It does not mean the same offense that you take it as. Try and study up a little bit and come to terms with the cultural gap. Try and get a better understand of their intentions rather than your reactions.

Hi Fishes,

I got an offer from PwC. The joining date that I had agreed from my side was 2 June. But I don't know that even in probation the NP is 90 days (it was mentioned in the release doc as 1 month but I didn't take that screenshot as proof). I told the whole issue to my recruiter and she sent a confirmation mail stating that she will revise my joining date by 90 days without issue. Is there any chance they can revoke the offer? I have put down my papers already.
