I know sometimes Directv hire people to work from home, well tonight I called in for something and got a guy and his tv was very loud had what sounded like a basketball game on, doesnt Directv has rules about no background noise for the people that work from home?

Ive had a guy who was working at home yelling at his kids while on the phone with me before. Some people are just clueless.

He could have been at a call center they have tvs all around the call center. Did the noise bother you or what?

Yeah, I've had an issue with one of my locals in the past and the person at the call center said they were tuning to it to see the issue themselves.

Wonder how they managed to get your spot beam at their call center?

Well I'm sure it's indirectly, which may not be totally relevant to troubleshooting, but a start.

I'm an installer and I have called in to activate receivers and could hear the guys dogs barking in the house. Sometimes these calls go pretty well, but once in awhile the at home guys seem a bit to laid back and relaxed for my tastes. The level of professionalism isn't there sometimes. At other times they are just like they were in a cubical at Directv call center somewhere but I have some clue they are really at home.

As someone that works from home (for another company), I can tell you that dogs specifically wait for you to get on the phone. Mine wont bark the entire day except for the 5 mins I am on a call. I can imagine it happens pretty regularly for someone doing call center work from home.
