Yes its true. I work in a restaurant that orders are placed over the phone, and if the phone rings over 5 times its picked up by a "call center". They may live 100 miles away, but it still works. The order is printed out on a ticket machine that beeps every time one comes through. They get paid $3 for every order they place for our location.

Totally wild!! We could be placing an order clear across country! I still don't understand why they do it. To put all that time, effort and money in opening a call center when they can just properly train staff!

Well the only money that is actually spent is whats given to the person that takes the call. Its not actually a "center" such as a place where a bunch of people sit and wait, its done from home, and really cost efficient if you think about spending $3 to make $10 to $100 each call...
