You will be worth your weight in gold as long as you can speak english without the indian or chinese accent.

One thing companies are realizing is that customer service actually means customer service. You have no idea how annoyed americans are when their technical support on the phone can’t speak english…

I have hung up on my outsourced indian native technical support before. Not because I am a racist or anything… but simply because I can’t understand a word they are saying and the technical support I needed was critical. Meaning I needed to understand every single sillable clearly to get the job done right.

The technical support over the phone is coming back to America… because Americans are fed up with the language barriers they have to deal with.

When did the US start outsourcing Customer Service and Tech Support overseas?

Question by Pickles_FTW: When did the US start outsourcing Customer Service and Tech Support overseas?
I am working on an English essay, and I need more specifics about dates and the laws that allowed this issue to occur. I need lings to articles if possible. Anything other than Wikipedia is accepted by the professor. Any help would be much appreciated!
