    You missed one thing. Call center girls most likely work nights.

      yes, the call centers take on contracts for companies all over the world, providing support lines. many are in the West, so the girls will work either a 2nd-shift or 'graveyard' shift. but many do work the day-shift as well. you can see them by the droves at IT-Park in Cebu City, 24/7.

      @@Lifebeyondthesea Majority of the BPO companies in the Philippines have a “two-day off.” The downside is the graveyard shift, although there are some who are on a day shift too (Australian accounts). Those who are working in the malls (supermarkets, department stores, clothing outlets) majority of them are working 6 days a week with a weekday off, as more people frequent the malls on weekends.

    You raise some good points, as you always do. I dated and married a call-center Filipina, my strategy for visiting was to get an Airbnb near her work. For the weeks that I was there, we just lived together. She would commute from my rented place to her work, she would come home after her shift and we would enjoy life like any other couple would where the partners are working. Turned out just great and yes, I helped out and did her laundry while she was gone at work😊. All the other advantages are there, she was in charge of English language support for her office so she was aces on speaking English and a perfect girl to come to the US. Someone who has a call-center job generally has her life fairly well in order. So this isn’t a Filipina who needs “rescuing” as is often the case with provincial girls. A girl working at a BPO may have the very best job of anyone in her family meaning that she’s very important to them in terms of helping them with income. So keep them in mind as you’re planning a future that family will likely still need her support and make sure you’re OK with that. Enjoy your videos so much thanks for sharing so much great info!

    After living here for 8 months now, I'm starting to realize that MOST Filipinas who have 'payroll' jobs work 6 days a week and have very little time off. Mall workers, ones who work in condo buildings, office workers etc. It seems the few women who work a job that only work 5 days a week are school teachers and bank employees.

  • @columbus7275

    For me, the mastery of English / communication skills of a college-educated call center lady can’t be beat. They are in constant communications training on the phone all day long. It almost feels like dating a western woman, except without most of the unsavory western gyno programming.
    That said, I agree you will need to work around her busy work schedule, as with most working Pinays.

  • @4302arod
    @4302arod Месяц назад +5

    Great topic Reekay! I think It includes all Filipinas with good jobs. A teacher, nurse, receptionist at a nice hotel, even college students. All of them are busy six days a week. I made my second trip to the Philippines earlier this year. I learned after the first trip not to plan a trip around a girl. I did much more traveling on the second trip going from Manila, to Dumaguete, to Iloilo and back to Manila and exploring along the way. I met many new people and made many new friends.

    • @Lifebeyondthesea
      @Lifebeyondthesea  Месяц назад +1

      yes, that's the way to do it. meet women as you go about your day. keep things flexible.

  • @YourFilipinaGrace
    @YourFilipinaGrace Месяц назад +4

    Totally agree with the possibility of having limited time together in case you will date a girl working in a call center. I'm working as a head of technical support and because the nature of most call center companies requires working at graveyard shift, it is indeed like we only have a day of rest noting we need to sleep after shift and rest early on a day before reporting to your evening shift - so technically, you're losing almost a day of your 2 rest days. Sad but really true...
    Thanks Reekay!

  • @mikeburns6603
    @mikeburns6603 Месяц назад +4

    A lot of the call center girls work at night. When it's day in the US (and people are calling) then it's night in PH. So she will likely be sleeping during most the day, even her day off. Just so you know.
    But the call center girls speak really good English and they're more educated, so they're still a good choice.

  • @blackwonderBW
    @blackwonderBW Месяц назад +7

    Great, informative video! I guess it depends what the man's expectations are. A young, cute, fluent English-speaker with a job sounds like a perfect vacation girlfriend to me. If I get a place near the call-centre, she can 'move in' with me while I'm there, since my place will likely be closer to her work than her place. And likely fancier too - another bonus for her. I understand most call-centre girls work the night shift. That's a bit of a minus, but workable. Like most guys, I enjoy a morning quicky. 😋 Then we can nap together. What would I do all day if she's asleep or works the day shift? The same things I'd do if I was travelling solo - see all the sights in the surrounding area. No interest in hooking up with other girls at all. It's never been my style, and even less so now at my age. 😬 Seems like the best of both worlds to me. A 'full-time' girlfriend that's not with me 24/7.

  • @OneModderJ
    @OneModderJ Месяц назад +2

    Another possible downside of the call centers is they are primarily staffed by young adults with appropriate libido levels. Friends of mine that work in call centers have told me that there is a huge flirting and hookup culture. So young attractive Filipina dating an old(er) fireigner but surrounded by hordes of young Filipino males with the same cultural background leads to a lot of temptation for her.

    Call center girls are good as u say cuz there English is good which is VERY important to me. However, I find it strange though that a guy would just zero in on call center girls only. Many other options out there. BTW- I was able to almost spend 20 minutes once at Magellans Cross. 🤣

    In my experience call centre girls get Sat and Sun off work. And if they're working in English they typically work for companies providing online support for the UK or North America, so their work hours are often at night and all night, because they work business hours for the time zone they are supporting. Experienced call centre girls often work remotely, from home or from anywhere they have a good internet connection. Their income can range from 15k P to 35k P a month.

    You are 1000% correct about them leaving things behind to ‘mark their territory’!
    Another thing… tons of women that work only have Sunday off… so if you’re trying to juggle a couple of women, be prepared to have an GOOD alibi for why you cannot see lady #2 on Sunday afternoon. Don’t take them to the same mall, restaurants, or movie theaters.
    They also love taking pics of the two of you together… and they will be posting those pics! Trying to be a player over here is tough…
    Be on your A game!

    More great advice from the Filapina Sensei! Guessing that most guys haven't thought it through and are just believing that a Filapina that works at a call center has excellent communication skills, so MUST be a better than average choice for a relationship. Quality time equals quantity in my book, and I would want to spend as much time as possible with a possibly lifetime companion. As Always, May God Bless you and yours!

    Another thing to think about is that call centers work based on the time of day in the country they are taking calls from, it's entirely likely that they will be working through the night as that is the daylight in the USA.

    I would think that anyone who comtemplates moving/long vacation to the Philippines would have taken the amount of time their girlfriend would have to spend with them (or any other woman they are likely to meet) if they have to work to support themselves. The only way it seems a person is going to have a filipina available is if she has no job, and is dependant on him, has some job that pays well with fewer hours than most (or takes a vacation) or is living with her family (that would probably be younger women). Unless you play the 'spot market' and date different girls that happen to be available that day.
    A question I have is how about the older guy who wants to come visit for a few weeks, has no expectations of finding a filipina, but just wants to see what the place is like. You talk about knowing what you want. But if it is just exploratory what should you plan for?
    But I guess that the plan is, do not make any commitments. Then get enough information about the Philippines, and yourself, to make a plan, from the safety of home when you get back.
    I know some western, especially older, men may fall victim to the women just because they are nice to him and see him as a catch. Something that is unheard of in their home country today.
    I guess for someone to contact you they have to make a facebook account? (something luddites may need to do anyway?)

    Dating a woman in the Philippines is very easy when you have money.
    KEEPING a good woman is also easy. You be a good man, and they'll be a good woman. Don't screw around with other women if you're seriously thinking about dating a woman to be with her long term. You will get a bad reputation pretty quickly and there will be a dearth of good women that will consider dating you. The ones you will attract may be fine for sex but that's about it. There will be the long list of problems that come up and talked about in these many videos especially money. And if you want to start over because you want to be with a GOOD woman your typical option is to move to a new place.

    “Philippines and pick out a puppy” is the feeling I get from a lot of such channels. Though I will say, that your channel does try to snap men a bit more into reality. However, I feel that at some point, all these dudes going over to Asia and playing games with the women there, is going to have negative consequences. They people, not play toys.
