Uhmm Eagler, the few times I called DiSH (usually for PPV event) it's always been a pleasant experience. Quick to answer (even on Christmas day) and just as quick to get it taken care of. Never gotten a hold of anyone that was not from America.

Calling the local cable company was an exercise in pain. You had to be masochistic to even want to call them. Most people would rather wait to see if the problem cured itself than call them.

Eagler,
Ever buy anything at Walmart, K-Mart, Target, Home Depot, Lowes, Sears, etc.

If so, then you have supported moving US jobs overseas.

lol Stringer... is it possible to take that one step farther and ask, Have you ever bought anything in america?

Its been so long since I've seen anything that had a made in america stamp on it.. Good gawd.. my father's brand new GMC was built in Canada... I think Honda and Toyota are the only manufacturers that build cars/trucks in america anymore.. hehe How ironic..

Earthlink has announced they're laying off 3100 people and shutting down more call centers in favor of outsourced customer support.
