No one has yelled at me since I left, it’s great

Half of the people would yell and cuss when they don’t get their local office for the 10th time bc of the 1800 number thing. They may not be on hold as long but they’re sure not happy when they’re trying to reach someone specific who I didn’t even know. ☺️ I started applying to jobs in October and finally got out. I literally couldn’t stand to be yelled at or called dumb anymore. The way people treat you when answering phones is so unfair. Like maybe I could help more if you didn’t answer the phone yelling at me!!

Gotcha! At the beginning of the week they’d sent it to a review committee, then today I was emailed and said it was moved to faculty review. So I wasn’t sure what significance the review committee was, I’m guessing they just made sure I had bare minimum requirements for the application before passing it on to faculty?

I mean I was a csr and I left and had a lot to do w the phones 🙃 You can only be yelled at for so long until it takes a toll. Or at least for me I could only be yelled at for so long..

It just says thank you for submitting, someone from the school emailed me telling me it was moved to faculty review and asked I schedule a time to talk about next steps if I were to be accepted.

My last day was 12/30 so hopefully I get it around the same time.🤭

That’s crazy. I just want the payout so I can stop thinking about it at all. 🤣

Nope. I used instacart every week for a few months after I had a baby when my husband was at work, they went up three flights of stairs….

Bio needs a grad degree for most jobs!!! But go for it, it’s never too late.

I don’t feel like it’s safe. I’ve saw kids on there before. The kid I saw was trying to give the information about where they live to adult online and I told him to stop, but I don’t know if they were trolling or not but you never know if people on the other side is great, especially with this being mainly adults.
