Indian Call Center workers BTW, make about 3 times the average wage in India and the jobs are highly sought after for a number of reasons, so while an American might not be able to live on the wages that are paid in "many" parts of the world recognizing that there are differences in standards of living and costs, many of the jobs that Americans create overseas improve the lives of many people...you do know that there are foreign companies that create jobs in the US as well and employ Americans, it's just not always as attractive to set up shop here....
Indian call centers are slowly getting smaller and smaller, nobody wants to talk to them anymore or hear the same boring script over and over. Their jobs are going away while lucrative US companies, not foreign are farming out the work for a reasonable wage here or noted corps are taking it back internally again and effectively.

Also higher level 'tier 2' support is getting farmed out here in the US and is a money maker for the giant corporations.
