What is a SING/SONG boy ?

I have DirectWay through Earthlink. When I've called them I've gotten a native English speaker who spent 30 minutes trying to solve my problems without success.

When I've used their e-mail tech support, it is usually answered by Vijay, Anil or Chandra but their advice is dead on, easily understood and invariably successful.

Go figger.

Dang, I need to turn my hearing aid down. I had been employed as a contractor for NASA for over ten years, just tried to stay away from all the bureaucrats there, but in the end it was petty politics that did me in. I just tried to do my job as best i could and not get involved with the us vs them thing that goes on at all levels of Government. My performance reviews were always outstanding. Didn’t hang with the right crowd I guess. They were talking of moving the whole optics group over to the army, but that move wasn’t supposed to happen till the next fiscal year. It was however, the straw that broke my back as far as wanting to remain in that field. I just want to move on, and this seems like a viable option.

I used to work for a boss who objected to outsourcing customer service beyond the confines of Montana because one of our clients might have to speak to someone with a "Southern accent or (God Forbid) a Negro." The Bigot retired two years ago. Being from the South I was highly offended by his comments.
