But a large part of the game is walking around the minefield that is Lord Sugar and she starts with a language and cultural barrier that gets in the way, and he starts with an unwillingness to put up with anyone he finds annoying - regardless of how good they might be - assuming they don't have another nail file he wants.

Michelle, Kate and Zara could read him like a book. Clare learnt to get it right, Stuart and Katie played him till it went very wrong. Bilyana got it more wrong than anyone. Sadly she also managed to get it wrong without going OTT attacking anyone , and partly because she was so worried she was going home, she put in her final bid repeatedly - instead of articulating a pretty good case why she should stay.
It might be that the language and cultural barrier is a factor, but I don't think you really needed to read Sugar that well to know that it was time to shut up.

The other girls detested her because they're all a bunch of jealous bitches. Horrible, horrible people and they all constantly talk over each other, have no time for other people, no listening skills are incredibly rude, like their gang style sales pitch in the shop. Wtf was that?!!

How could anyone possibly want to be in buiseness with them? Their arrogance makes them stupid and naive.
I think it is unfair to say 'the other girls' as if they were all equally bad. But they did seem a nervy bunch, constantly point-scoring for the camera. A couple of them kept harping on and on about Gabrielle's alleged inability to direct operations, so clearly playing to the camera that they might has well have used those giant foam hands people take to sporting events to point at her more obviously. The men's group actually seemed to be working together in a friendly way, though history suggests that this was a fluke and will soon change.

I think re. biliana it is a rule of life that his Lordfulness will support (sometimes) people who have made a bad decision, people who talk too much in the boardroom when they should shut up and people detested by their fellow team members, but to expect him to warm to someone who has all three deficits on day one is a bit much. You really do have to choose between the evil bitch role and the blundering fool role, not scarf up both at once.
