This reminds me of when I had trouble with ATT Uverse & had to call them, in the phillipines. The poor girl was probably new, but I had trouble understanding her & vice versa, and she couldn't get her computer to go where it needed to go. I said during one of the many pauses, "I hope this call is being recorded because AT&T, AMERICAN Telephone & Telegraph, you need to change your name, or HIRE AMERICANS."

I switched internet to a small regional company after that. They only operate in 3 states...

As the guy was installing it, I learned from him that the customer service for my new wonderful "local" company is located

...in the Phillipines.

Thanks Neoliberals & your new world order....
