Outsourcing creates the endless work day

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The traffic jam ended hours ago, the parking lot is nearly empty and fluorescent lights are dimmed at PortalPlayer Inc., where the nightly brainstorming session is about to begin.
Instead of gathering the few remaining souls from their cubicles, three managers move into a conference room to dial India, where engineers 12 1/2 time zones ahead are just arriving in Hyderabad.
As colleagues on opposite sides of the globe discuss circuit board configurations and debugging strategies for a project code-named 'Doppelganger,' it's just the start of another endless day for the company. Within twelve hours, Indian workers will end their day with calls and e-mails to California, where managers in the Santa Clara headquarters will just be waking up."

Hi there NBA Computers... Look where I landed searching for info on call center consultant. But since Im here... I thought I'd just stop by and read... I found your post "Outsourcing creates the endless work day" kinda interesting.
Do you always write that way?
I guess I'd better be on my way as I still need stuff on call center consultant for my project.
Thanks for a good read NBA Computers ...and keep doing all the great blogs. Cheers.
