This is one of the viable use cases for ousourcing a sort of professional position. You keep your experience in-host mostly, and contract for temp front end staff.I have learned that for many years, Weber has used third-party call center resources to supplement the in-house support staff during peak grilling season when the call volume goes way up.
Sad to say, Dan I got from the git go. I should probably post the Tennessee reading test, but it's very oral.I looked this one up and added it to the humor thread just for you.

Yeah, the more I thought about it the more I was convinced. You tripped the alarm.Y'all should
well, my experience with the support people is 95% bad. they don't seem to be trained on the product most of the time I can't understand themThe one time I called weber support was last fall it was a positive experience.
I don't recall specifics but nothing to complain about.
Doing a bit of research on this, I've not found any info (so far) that Weber has moved customer support overseas.

As someone who half-heartedly took two years of German in high school because my friends and I thought it would be cool but should have taken Spanish instead for its usefulness...I had a chance to speak with many Dutch folks during my IT career and was always impressed at their impeccable English. Wish I had taken foreign language more seriously in school.We have some very nice friends who are Dutch.
Many people from western Europe speak English better than Americans do. Yeah there's an accent but I have always been amazed at how well they communicate to us. Many of them also speak multiple languages. Most of the kids we hosted from Europe as exchange students spoke at least 4 including their own.

My daughter is a licensed pharmacist. Once ran a pharmacy in a large supermarket. She now works for an insurance company taking phone calls at home answering medication questions. And makes over six figures doing it. While I have my own frustrations with outsourced phone support not all of it is what you think.Well I haven't had a reason to call weber, but we did have to call our insurance company after a derecho hit our town. Nothing professional about it. Someone working from home first call we heard barn animals the second kids being loud. I guess that's the new normal.
