It’s Christmas once again and I’m wondering how would call centers be spending their Christmas parties since we all know that we are experiencing a slow economy? Especially with the United States, that although some have declared the US is already out of the recession others still believe they are not, when the majority of the local call centers’ clients are from there.
Will they still be spending much money on holiday parties? Our call center last year gave away a brand new car. I’m not yet sure if they are going to do the same thing during next month’s Christmas party. What I know is the venue is still some place big (so it means it’s not within the office premises) and that there will be rock bands and other live concerts. So I expect it to be equally fun and exciting, although perhaps minus the glittering prizes.
But who knows, perhaps next year will be a much better year for the economy and the call center industry in particular. Maybe there will be more prizes, both cash and in kind, for a 2010 Christmas party.
