Well, sort of getting back to the original topic of the post... Those Indians need to just get over themselves. As far as I -- and much of the rest of the population of the world -- am concerned, call center tech support on the scale of "professional prestige" is somewhere between a fast-food restaurant employee and a retail cashier. It's a job mainly for people of the educational advancement around the level of the average American high school student. Which, unfortunately, isn't really that advanced. If they want professional respect, start studying, take entrance exams, and go to school to study in a professional field. Don't try to pass off your work as professional just because you get to sit in an office all day. (As a disclaimer, I have worked the help desk for a company before, and I have done retail cashier briefly. I have thus far been spared from burger flipping.)

Oh, and Spanish is definitely easier than English to learn. Because when you come down to it, English is such a mish-mash of languages from all over the place, and while it is Latin-based, it also has elements of Greek, Germanic/Nordic, Cyrillic, Arabic, and naitive American speech in a lot of the vocabulary. Spanish, you only need to learn a thousand or so verbs with the three main conjugation rules, a few hundred irregular verbs, and a few thousand vocabulary words, and you're set. There's no need for a Spanish-language Thesaurus, but with English it's almost essential. And I remember reading an article on language somewhere before, I believe about Esperanto, that mentioned the size of various languages. It went something like 100,000 total words for a lot of European languages, I think something like 150,000 for Hindi (that's 'Indian' for some of the folks here) or German, and then English... depending on which estimates you take, between 600,000 and over a million. Of course most people only use around 50,000 of those words, and many of them are extremely technical in nature, but there are many words that are mainly regional; probably the easiest to illustrate that with Americans is: 'soda', 'pop', or 'Coke'. Depending on where you are, you use one of those words to mean exactly the same thing.

By the way, thesaurus.reference.com has four noun entries for 'table', and one verb entry.
