       "I have some disturbing news."  "We outsourced our customer-service
       function to India a few years ago."  "So?"  "Apparently, they
       subcontracted the job to Mexico."  "Then Mexico subcontracted to
       Vietnam, who subcontracted to the Philippines.."  "..Who subcontracted
       it to us."  "It turns out that we're the lowest-cost provider because
       we lie about our hold times."  "In summary, we pay ourselves to hose
       ourselves."  "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"  "We should raise
       our prices?"
