"2 million jobs in India"

LOL. Who wants to be a telemarketer? It's not exactly every child's dream. I wonder what the suicide rate is for them? All that misery they spread, all the angry responses they receive. Maybe they should take up dentistry.

People like myself, who EARNED about $18 an hour , part time for Christmas a couple years in a row, just to name one. Lots of different businesses use telemarketers. I worked as a salesman for a couple different outfits, whosde leads were all supplied by telemarketing. One was a Home improvement company. They had a crew of 16 regular guys that did aluminum siding, all of the work they had was supplied by telemarketing, and also all of the work that we sub-contracted to roofers, Carpet Layers, Kitchen and Bath Installers, Air conditioning and heating men, and everyone else that we subbed all of our "complete home remodeling" services to. No big deal throwing them out of work is it?

I would think that there are more than just 2 million telemarketing jobs being affected here.

"Maybe they should take up dentistry."

You should not knock Dentist. The next time you get a tooth ache, why don't you go to a Barber to have your problem taken care of? Or a plumber? Or a carpenter? Dentist in the US are the best trained dentist in the world, bar none.
