Does it never end? In the U.S., they brought the workers in from India and the U.S. workers were forced to train them or be without work and a paycheck immediately. There are auto workers who had to train their replacements. What a world, what a world. And in India, the money is not filtering down - it is just making a certain "caste" wealthier. All this to stop matching Social Security & Medicare deductions of U.S. workers paychecks. We send jobs to countries where workers get national health coverage and in Costa Rica, for example, free higher eduction. I asked a friend to bring me back a pillow-case from Ireland her last trip, opened it up and the label read "Made in India." I could have bought the same thing locally at my Bed, Bath & "Bejing" store! What happened to Irish linens?
That's a load of nonsense that "call volumes had fallen by 40% year-on-year", unless they mean for the entire group. Waterford was the ONLY profit making section of Talk Talk, and if customers have any sense of justice, they should withhold their bill payments UNTIL the employees get a decent Redundancy payment, AND the Government should insist on a refund of the Training Grant worth €millions paid to Talk Talk when they came here!! Typical Brits, and some idiots thought the Queen's visit was important - right!
