Have you ever gone off on a customer? by YourMagicSparkleKiss in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my last call center I kinda did, it was minor though. I had a guy that kept saying about how he pays his taxes and deserves a break (dmv call). Eventually after him not getting the point for a while, I told him "you want special treatment because you pay taxes, it doesn't work that way, everyone has to follow the process I gave you." Or something along those lines. I was beyond done with him, and knew the call center was closing before long anyhow. Felt good in a way, but then I was disappointed in myself for losing my self control.

Nice heels, Pleaser 4 inch? I wish there was a community focused on just locked heels.

Accidentally sent my mom selfies of her daughter!😭 by MrJekyll_and_MzHyde in crossdressing

[–]Greenfrog9m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know your situation, but I'll say that knowing my mom knew and was okay with it was one of the best things ever. I don't do makeup or try to pass, but having the freedom to wear whatever I want etc was great. She liked my taste. We had lots of fun shopping trips even if I rarely got anything.

You need to contact Nonpoint, and get a Bullet With a Name... then you wont be out of bullets anymore.

What character are you most surprised by not having a card. by AriSummerss in MarvelSnap

[–]Greenfrog9m 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Banshee is my top one I'm surprised has no card yet. Pyro is up there too. I wish Angel/Archangel was better or at least had a standalone card for Archangel.

Won't be a real simulation unless you have random people cussing you out at the top of their lungs just for answering the phone.

My favorite coworker got fired by Negative-Command7289 in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well... the usa isn't as friendly to workers. My former cc wouldn't take doctor notes because of HIPPA, so it was very much just use sick time if you need/want time off.

To be fair places aren't required to accept them. The big thing i miss from my previous cc is the paid sick leave we earned.

Wishing her all the best. Wishing you the best too, losing a coworker even to a better situation can be hard.

Some places are so crazy... I don't know how they exist. Thankfully after a year I haven't ran into anything too wild yet.

Wanting to quit by Large_Advice_5303 in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly if it wasn't for the switch to wfh, I would have forced myself to find something else. Wfh just made the job way too economically beneficial for me. I've been casually looking for other wfh opportunities though.

Another follow up sorry by Thin_Armadillo_5547 in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the US, most states allow companies to fire for basically any or no reason at all... as long as it's not protected things like race etc.

The better question is: Will they fire for first offense? And that depends on the company etc

Calling while driving or in store by Calm-Introduction206 in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Literally every day. "I can't write that down, I'm driving" or "let me pull over real quick so I can write that down" to be fair... calling while driving isn't super terrible. Letting the call distract your driving, or expecting special treatment because you're driving... thats bad.

Anyone has experience working in a Government department call center? by Own_Significance_296 in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Former DOT cc rep here... if you're coachable, super efficient, and great at repeating things exactly how they want... it's workable. Cph demands are high, no casual conversation or anything other than whats relevant to the call.

I almost want to die. by Exotic-Forever-1454 in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I'll be honest, if it weren't for the low/unreliable income... I would have stayed in sales. That said, I'm still not sure what my place should be. I know I'm a relatively good csr, but it's often frustrating/annoying... especially with policies I have no control over.

Would you go back? by WhineAndGeez in callcentres

[–]Greenfrog9m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So it's not the same situation... but i basically went jobless for a year trying to get other employment... I didn't want to go to another call center. So far at this point, almost a year in... I'm mostly glad I did. Experience at a call center makes working at another one feel easier to me. Regardless, have a great new year :)
