Welcome

Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone.

For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Dialing 800 Numbers ... Thx Paul C!

  I thought this was a great idea and so I'm sending this along.  If
you think it's a good idea too, please pass it along  to your
friends.  If our government can't figure out how to create jobs
here; well then it's time to show them how it's done. Bring jobs
back to the USA.!

       USA   - PLEASE DO NOT DELETE BEFORE READING   !

The gas company serving my area brought their call center back to Phoenix from India last year after numerous customer complaints.  What a difference now when you call them...and it created 300 jobs.  I know this works because they were so bad that when India answered I wouldn't even deal with them.  I'd simply ask to be transferred to a rep. in the U.S. and they would comply.

        Now that I know it is the LAW - I will do it for sure.

        Any time you call an 800 number (for a credit card, banking,
Verizon, health and other insurance, computer help desk, etc.) and
you find that you're talking to a foreign customer service
representative (perhaps in India, Philippines, etc), please
consider doing the following.

        After you connect and you realize that the customer service
representative is not from the USA (you can always ask if you are not sure about the accent),
please, very politely, say, "I'd like to speak to a customer service representative in the United States".

        The rep might suggest talking to his/her manager, but, again, politely say, "Thank you, but I'd like to speak to a customer service representative in the USA."

        YOU WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A REP IN THE USA.  That's the
rule and the LAW.

It takes less than one minute to have your call re-directed to the USA   .

Tonight when I got redirected to a USA rep, I asked again to make sure - and yes, she was from Fort Lauderdale.

  Imagine what would happen if every US citizen insisted on talking to only US phone reps from this day forward?  Imagine how that would ultimately impact the number of US jobs that would need to be created.

If I tell 10 people to consider doing this and you tell 10 people to consider doing this - see what I mean... it becomes an exercise in Viral Marketing 101!

Remember: The goal here is to restore jobs back here at home - not to be abrupt or rude to a foreign phone rep.  You may even get correct answers, good advice, and solutions to your problems.

If you agree, please tell 10 people you know, and ask them to tell 10 people they know....etc...most of the time you can't understand the foreign rep anyway!!

"The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are now outnumbered by those that vote for a living”.
