From my experience in running tech support operations I can tell you
this is nothing unique to Cingular -- call center reps have high
turnover throughout this and other industries, with stress from
difficult or even abusive callers being the single biggest cause.
It's a thankless job.

Call centers are often outsourced out of the USA not only because of
lower cost, but also because people in other countries are more willing
to put up with stress from callers due in part to being more grateful
for the employment.
