Outsource & Memorial Overdose?

Here I go complaining again but I have to say I am really disgusted with companies who contract out services to foreign companies and we have to sit here and try to figure out what they are saying when we call a support line. We all know companies that do that are trying to charge us $100 for a service that they pay a quarter for. We spend twice the time on a tech help call than we should. If they are going to outsource at least do it to a country that speaks a similar language that we do. Lets all let these companies know that we are disgusted with their practices. I have nothing against foreigners but I would like to be able to understand what they are trying to tell me. Then there are the American jobs that are lost by sending them overseas. Perhaps our people would like a good job, be able to communicate with customers and those customers might use those companies more. What do you think??

I also want to agree with my son's post to lets let all this memorial publicity die down some. I know people like to remember their loved ones who have died and I feel the same way about my parents and brother who died but I don't have memorial service on the tv every year, after year, after year. I know lots of people who had relatives that died in accidents and they didn't get millions of dollars. What made the 9-11 office workers any different than these people? They died in an accident. Our state not only has to hear about 9-11 but we have the Murrah Bombing also. Fire fighters and police yes because they try to save people. Then there is Princess Diana, I loved her too but I don't need a rerun every year about how she died. Lets move on and let these families move on.
