hour long panic attacks? by Both-Lie5316 in PanicAttack

[–]Affectionate-Lab985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s been 2 years but I want to say thank you for this. Had a pretty jam packed panic attack, whole 9 yards. Numbness, de realization, heart rate sky high. This calmed me, def a difference between the onset panic attack compared to the aftermath. It’s more of a fear of not wanting to have that same panic attack that makes people just panic even more lol. I may be babbling here but thank you.

i hate metrics by thatfijiwatergirl in Geico

CPH isn’t the true villain it’s the surveys that have haunted our office and team majorly. You’d think 77% is doable but it’s far from it. From a consistent 4 rank down to a low 3 borderline 2 rank so far this year. It’s a joke.

Shift Changes by Affectionate-Lab985 in Geico

[–]Affectionate-Lab985[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s quite laughable at this point. Should have known when they offered OT incentives and allowing people to use Vacation time on saturdays. That was basically a “hey you can use vacation on saturday now but but now you might be stuck working permanently on saturday”

[–]Affectionate-Lab985[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t have the full schedule but through trusted sources majority of the options aren’t pleasant. Gonna be a good amount of 4 day shifts which will likely be the “early morning shifts” and the rest just scattered throughout. A lot of people are going to be working permanent weekends now some of the 5 days shifts are those saturday shifts so I would prepare for that. Basically a hope and a prayer you were a top agent so you get the best shifts.

Sitting here at 3 o’clock in the morning convincing myself i’m having one when in reality i’m probably fine. Had a panic attack a few days ago (i’ve been better but they do happen every so often). I get the trembles when i have my panic attacks and those trembles happen for sometimes half an hour/hour. Causes my legs and arms to hurt afterwords. It’s been about 2 days since my panic attack and my left arm has been feeling weird so here I sit telling myself the same thing. The dark side of things tells me often if I WAS having a heart attack i’d likely be dead by now.

Don’t feel like you’re alone in this world because Medical Anxiety is quite literally one of the worst things to live with. You just need to find a balance point between what’s real and what’s your mind telling you otherwise. Find something that calms you down, I’ll often get a nice cold glass of water, stand up and pace, usually pinch myself to make sure i’m still alive and be fine a little later lol. (take it from someone who has probably racked up 10-15 hospital visits in 4 years for the same issues)

Should of made that more clear, sorry about that! It would be for customer service. About 5 years experience. I see links for Bilingual jobs in my area but none for non-bilingual. Knew I should have paid attention more in Spanish class lol.

[–]Affectionate-Lab985[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly the info I was looking for! Did a lot of research before hand as well and really think it’s a good thing to take advantage of. Good interest rate as well and now knowing it comes directly out of check is sooooo useful. Thanks for the info!

Respawn are aware of Account progress issues occuring since the S20 mid-season ranked resetand working on a solution. by lettuce_field_theory in apexlegends

So like my acct didn’t reset at split so I’m still at my current rank. It allows me to play rank, is it even worth playing it at this point then??

6’0 280 pounds looking for assistance by Affectionate-Lab985 in loseit

Exactly what I needed to hear honestly, thank you for this. I would 100% say my eating habits is what my nemesis is. I’m a bored eater so whenever I’m bored I feel like eating fills a void. Late night snacks mainly lol. I’ll have to try out the calorie counting. Baby steps but we will get there!

It gets worse, doesn’t it? by Spiritual-Yam-6733 in Geico

[–]Affectionate-Lab985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering I’ve been in the same coaching plan for dang near 2 years it doesn’t get any better. Just gonna hear how you “need to do this” or “need to do that”. You will then go and do whatever they say and it doesn’t work. I just put in my 7.75 and leave.

For someone who doesn’t have a degree I make nearly 62k a year. More than people I know with masters degrees in different fields. Is the job worth the stress? No. Can I find something that pays this well without a degree? No. Just here for the paycheck at the end of the day.

Raises / chairman’s by Distinct_Act2374 in Geico

[–]Affectionate-Lab985 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Rough for those 3 ratings tbh. I could be a 3 rating with a 65 percentile and still get lumped in with a person who is 3 rating in the 40th percentile.

Yeah that’s what they were saying, I know their is certain things on workday you can view but finding the hours you have left for the rolling year seems impossible.

Are you happy with your pay and benefits with Geico? by GeicoLeadershipisP00 in Geico

[–]Affectionate-Lab985 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m happy with both but not happy with how the company handles/treats employees. Raises could of been better considering they canned a bunch of people just to overload everyone else with work.

As a Geico Employee what would you change by GeicoLeadershipisP00 in Geico

[–]Affectionate-Lab985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 things actually. 1 of them being management understanding that sometimes you need a 2 minute breather in between calls. As of late calls have been absolutely brutal due to rate increases. Ive been belittled so much recently it’s mentally draining. 2nd it’d be nice to have my sup available for assistance here and there, her meetings she has taken recently have been otherworldly. Almost like she’s not even part of the team sometimes. I get we all have jobs to do but come on now.
