<who'da thunkit: foreigners are better workers than Americans.> Well, it's all relative... an American with their viewpoint: <<they view a call center job as a career, >> would have been mistaken! LOL, anyway, good point, just kidding...Panama... jeeez. I smell an adjustment in US incomes. DAK

<<local paper today had article about DELL opening a new call center in Panama. they're even cheaper than Indians. paying Panamanians $2.76 an hour instead of paying US workers $25 an hour. in January Panama repealed a $1 per call tax on call-center calls. DELL and others will take advantage of this to open call centers there.>> I guess Mikey took that DELL commercial where the intern turns the lights out on the US tech support folks a wee bit too literally!<GGG>
