    BT to recall 2,000 call-centre jobs based in India

    Did this get commented on yesterday. Presumably BT are going to retrain all their benchies in the resource pool as call centre operatives.

        'The company had applied renewed focus on cost-cutting. By next March, it hopes to have slashed 30,000 jobs or one sixth of its 162,000-strong workforce. The plans will slash overheads by £1bn this year'.

        Im sure that the 30,000 staff that are leaving also refer to themselves as overheads as well.

            Hobson's choice, replacing sub-continent "whizzkids" with institutionalized deadbeat one-dimensional BT "engineers". On the upside, they will probably understand your query. On the downside, most of them will be a cross between Victor Meldrew and Mr Bean with no more notion of what constitutes good Customer Relations than the average Rottweiler.

              They'll probably bring the Indian staff over here.
