Anyone festering their lives away in a call center?
Thing is, I'm going back to the Alps in late November to work for the ski season. until then i needed to get a job. I looked for temporary work but found out that easy 3 months ish temporary jobs kind of don't exist, or have hundreds of applicants.
so as a last resort i went for the option of the ever present ad plastered across every paper in the land for the big corporate company whose staff turnover is through the roof because the job sucks hence the ever present ad.
4 weeks in i've finished training and am about to be let loose on the public with no clue what the hell i'm doing. the company is a shambles with a horrific old computer system that always crashes, so most calls are spent dealing with infuriated customers complaining about some other guy who fucked up.
This next couple of months will be horrific and just want to see if theres anyone else who works in this environment with tips on how to avoid suicide. thanks. i would play poker constantly but I kind of want to go out and meet new people, have a life etc.
oh and if you live in england don't ever deal with or work for CIS insurance or the cooperative bank.
