Aquilis I've been very lucky to not have any more problems than being asked to move about the plane to a different seat before take off, and the occasional bit of rough turbulance in the air. Otherwise I have to say everything has been rather good so far, and I really...

Are you in favor of the call centers to be outsourced in the Asian countries?

ip5217 @ip5217 (1655) • Philippines 27 Mar 09

It is a fact that today, most of the call centers are outsourced in countries like Philippines and India. It can be attributed to the low manpower cost from the said countries. It is very much true. However, do you really believe...

Aquilis Maybe they send you a check for nothing on it? Or perhaps a nice bag of air? Kind of reminds me when they released that CD with a free air guitar and you ended up with all those stories of people asking for their free air guitar at the till.

Zhu Huifen @zhuhuifen46 (3483) • China 27 Mar 09
