Furs Furs Furs!

I saw a couple of ladies in fur coats and matching fur handbags and they look very nice. Of course, such attires wouldn’t look so appropriate in tropical countries but in states with cold climates, such attires are a big hit to women. It’s a good thing that I live in a country with a warm climate. Otherwise, tons of women would have asked me already to buy them those nice attires.

Bad Call Center 3

Further to my first 2 posts regarding this obscure call center in India that victimizes Britons with not so good credit records, I believe that companies that does this things should be hunted down by their host governments in cooperation with the victims' countries. Getting this racketeers off the map is one good way to protect the multi billion dollar outsourcing industry.

Wedding Bands

It used to be gold or silver. Then they had precious stones stud the rings. Now, tungsten wedding bands from JewelryVortex are the fad and everyone’s going gaga over it. Well, not all. Only a big number of people getting married are into it. I found out about this Tungsten thingies since I frequent call centers and there’s a lot of young people working in it. It is but natural that there will be a big number of weddings in a year within the industry and that’s how I got to know about it.

Bad Call Center 2

The bad call center that I wrote about in an earlier post gives outsourcing a bad name. They may not be outsourced as a legitimate loan agent but they can make a lot of consumers wary. People may start ignoring calls coming from people with foreign accents and that will make legitimate call centers perform badly.

People in the industry should be vigilant and report to their bosses anything that can possibly affect the industry in a negative way.

Horse Riding

My friend had equestrian clothing but wouldn’t admit to being one. My friend probably feels that since it is the sport of only a few, not many would be able to identify with the sport so involvement with it is better left unsaid. In the Philippines, there is a popular equestrienne who won gold in the Asian Games. She rides flawlessly that an instructor once pointed her out to students saying; “And that’s how to ride a horse!”

Bad Call Center

Let's also touch on the bad side of outsourcing. People in the US and Great Britain are use to hearing callers with foreign accents. This is because a lot of local companies have outsourced their customer and phone marketing departments to call centers in India and a few other countries. It was not a surprise for a lot of people then to get calls from people with India accents offering them non collateral free loans. Those people were desperate for loans after getting bad payment records of their past loans and credit card debts that they agreed to pay an advance fee to the agency. Of course, the loans never came and their monies were never returned. The call center turned out to be a fake company and millions of pounds were duped from the poor desperate Britons.
