    Most of the call centers in our area closed up because they couldn't keep a staff, well before outsourcing took place.

    Call centers are a small percentage of what gets outsourced.  I was under the impression that only prisoners and desperately in debt college students had those jobs, anyway.

    Seemed like it.  There is a lot of hands on stuff that can't be outsourced though, and that is what we had to import help for.

    Nobody wants to do those jobs that the Indians are taking anyway.  We had to import Jamaican labor at my company just to get through the Christmas rush.  We're even insourcing jobs now.

    A lot of medical transcription companies outsource to India, not because there are not American transcriptionists, but because American transcriptionists want to make a living wage to do the job.

    My only experience with outsourced technical support was with Dell and India, and he spoke better English than most people I work with.

    I don't think I can even talk about my experiences with outsourced technical or customer assistance in INdia without sounding like a huge racist.

    my cousin and mother are in danger of having their jobs outsourced.  My mom is the ONLY person they kept from a staff of about 25.  She works in communications for citibank, making sure that branches have modem, telephone lines and hooking up conference call lines and computer meetings.  They are outsourcing her job to spain. 
    I just pray that they do need that US person, because she's 61 and she swears up and down that no one is going to hire her.  She's soooooooooooooooooooo stressed, it kills me everyday.

    Well, there is one thing that all people want and need from other people.  And that's sex.

    I think we should gather up a bunch of the jobless and willing, move to Vegas, and build the world's tallest brothel.  One hundered stories and a pimp on every floor! 

    We'd probably have to call them sex managers or something, though.

    This is true.  On the other hand, think of all the gross, ugly people who won't be bothering you anymore because they are getting laid on a regular basis.

    Ron if you didn't spurn me I would have never turned to Nomad in the first place.

    Seriously though, if they legalized prostitution and marijuana and taxed the hell out of it we might have a budget surplus again.

    From the Bladder Cancer website.&#160; I thought a few of you would like this story.

    QUOTE:
    A cancer sufferer who wanted to re-home his dog was amazed when U.S. President-elect Barack Obama said he would be interested in making the dog his family pet.

    Bill Munnoch, 67, took the heartbreaking decision to find a new home for his three-month-old Shih Tzu, wanting to ensure it went to a good family.

    Mr Munnoch, who lives in a suburb of Falkirk, Scotland, said: 'I was recently diagnosed with bladder cancer for the third time and felt that if I had to spend a spell in hospital it wouldn't be fair on wee Hamish.

    I hope your mom can hold on to her job.&nbsp; My mom lost her full-time job a few years ago and she hasn't been able to find another full-time job since then.&nbsp; She just turned 61.

    She's got a part-time gig, but it's hardly enough to live on.&nbsp; No one else will hire her.

    I really wish she would have sold her house before the market crashed.&nbsp; She bought it in the 70s, and housing prices have gone through the roof in my hometown since then.&nbsp; She probably could have made $100,000 profit.&nbsp; She could still make a decent profit, I'm sure, but she still won't sell.
