Typical Customer Service...

I think I've talked to him a few times...

EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH​

​

Mujibar was trying to get a job in India. The Personnel Manager said, "Mujibar, you have passed all the tests, except one. Unless you pass it you cannot qualify for this job. Mujibar said, "I am ready"​

The manager said, "Make a sentence using the words Yellow, Pink and Green."​

Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said, "Mister manager, I am ready"

The manager said, "Go ahead."

Mujibar said, "The telephone goes green, green, and I pink it up, and say, 'Yellow, this is Mujibar.'"

Mujibar now works as a technician at a call center for computer problems. No doubt you have spoken to him. I have.​

Strange. I never get one with a name like Mujibar. They always have
names like Jim, Steve, Pete. And I'll be darned if I can understand them.

I get one or two calls a day from someone over there wanting me to
offshore stuff to them. Fat chance.

What takes the cake .. Friday I had an IBM rep in my office. He kept
talking about outsourcing our programming. I said .. I suppose this
work is done in India or Pakistan. He said yup. I said .. look around ..
I have a couple programmers working for me that do fantastic work
and the 3 of us do all the programming and know every line of code.
Why in the world would I put Americans out of work so someone half
way around the world can do it.

Good on 'ya, Roger! Keep it up! Just don't let some bean counter over ride your position with some screwed up proposal to save money. I've seen too many outsourced projects that initially saved 50% in manhour costs that ate the budget and didn't deliver, or delivered code that didn't meet the specs or just plain didn't work.
