Call center employee receives first-ever award for saving a customer’s life

ROCK HILL —  Comporium Communications today handed out its first-ever Excellence Award to an operator who works at the company’s call center.

Comporium President and CEO Bryant Barnes says back in July,  Barbara Busby took what seemed to be a normal cable TV repair call.

Busby says when she thinks about saving a life… it gives her goosebumps.

Busby says she became very concerned when the customer’s speech became more slurred and labored.

Comporium President and C-E-O Bryant Barnes explains why the award was created.

Busby says she didn’t do anything special that day.  However, she admits thinking about saving a life gives her goosebumps.  She received a plaque and a 250-dollar gift certificate from Comporium.
