Hi there, this is my first visit. Found your site from BlogCatalog.com via Google: while searching for Call Centers.
So anyway, I wasn’t going to comment until after reading the description of this book. Thanks for turning me on to this author.
Great Job
interesting topic , I would like to read more on this topic
basically a major and well told instructive real life story to heed
Do yourself a favor, skip this movie an watch: Call Center employees generally do not break out into song and dance when trouble ensues. Chetan Bhagat is overrated and his books are mediocre at best.
