Well, to be honest, it is in Minot, ND. Thats not exactly a hot spot on most peoples job re-location list.

I know I turned down a very good job offer once because of its location in a similar area.

Call centers have extremely high turnover rates. I wouldn’t doubt they had enough people to staff it when first opened, but the local population probably can’t support the high turnover. Was the company expecting people all over the U.S. to pick up and move to Minot (or anywhere else for that matter) just for the chance to work in a call center?

So why don’t they MOVE the location? Something doesn’t smell right here.

DUH!!!

I remember talking to an old SAC Colonel about Minot.

The saying goes:

“Why not Minot? FREEZIN’s the REASON!”

Perhaps they should try paying a market wage?
