    If Trump Gets Elected, Could He Bring These Jobs Back To America?
    Customer Service Reps

    My God! I was about to pull out my last 3 strands of hair from my head talking to Comcast. I turn on my MLB Extra Innings package, and it is saying I am not subscribed. I call them up and get a representative named "Jim". I precede to tell him the problem, and that my last bill shows I paid for the package. He apologizes for my problem for the first of about 15 times. After having me hold 3 times while he tries to find the problem, he finally tells me that the plan is 4 payments of $42.75. I told him I took advantage of a special offer made to me last month for $69 for the whole season. I get to hold again.

    He then comes back to tell me that maybe it is just off until another payment is made. Again, I tell him I paid $69 for a whole season of baseball. He then tells me he's sorry. He thought I was talking about the MLB Extra Innings package, not beisbol. He tries to get me to hold again, but I tell him MLB EI is baseball! Again he is sorry and apologizes. Finally after 22 minutes, I tell him that I would like to request an "English first" representative. I tell him no hard feeling, but you don't understand anything I'm talking about.

    I wait 2 minutes, and I am now on line with a tech named Wade. I describe the problem. He starts troubleshooting. After 20 more minutes, he finds out that I was transferred to him in error. I should be talking to billing because for some reason they have my MLB service shut off. I get another apology. He asks me if I remember who I talked to before. I said, "Yes", but do not want him. I want an English first rep. Apologies again.

    Two more minutes, and I'm on the phone with Alex. Speaks great English. He sees I paid for the special promotion last month, and says my service should be back up in 20-30 minutes. It is back up in 2 minutes. The whole time it took Alex to fix the problem was just under 5 minutes. What a way to spend a Friday night!

            I have a Cricket phone. If I want to get something done, I just go to the closest store. Nothing but headaches calling their customer service line.

              At least most of the jobs are in the Philippines now. They actually speak great English compared to the fcuking Indians.

                I get telemarketers phoning my house 5 times a day know from India. They found a trick,where they can spoof a local number so when you look at your call display youll just pick up automatically.

                          Was on the fence about Trump, but after personally talking to John Miller last night and hearing how passionate he is about The Don, I'm officially on the Trump train.

                                Hey GUMMO, being in Florida and all... have you ever personally talked to Chi Chi LaRue about Marco Rubio?

                                  Maybe you'll get hired and work a few shifts. It will be good for you.

                                    People are living in La La Land thinking that Trump has any leverage of forcing big corporations like Apple of bringing jobs to America. That ship has sailed a long time ago bozos so keep wasting your votes and chasing pipe dreams.

                                              There is only so much room between Wp and P Tariff, you cannot simply continue to raise taxes on imported goods. Well you can but it would ultimately be detrimental. Those big corps are laughing. American workers cost too much, bottom line

                                                    Have the job I want now.
                                                    No job. Boring at times, but has enough upside to ride it out.

Well you can but it would ultimately be detrimental. Those big corps are laughing. American workers cost too much, bottom line

What's left is service and highly skilled. So either corporations can pay Americans or some other group of educated workers who live in the developed world, ie Europe. Compared to Europeans, Americans are cheap.

                                                                    Trade unions are now less than 10% of the workforce and all time low... That argument is nonsense.

Not only laugh... but it's 100% the truth. I don't know why any person should tolerate being on the phone 1 hour to fix a 5 minute problem? All these boneheads taking phone calls making minimum wages.... having zero clue about their company, technology, sports... and everything in between that they sell. Unreal.
