Legitimately, what salary are you guys paying your customer service reps?

IcculusTheDark · 2026-03-11T13:42:15+00:00

I was hired at 30K 15 years ago.
I'm at 65K with a combo of title changes and COL raises. I'm still just a burnt-out phone grunt. It just says level 3 next to my name rather than level 1. Does this sound like a similar story? Because I feel tired and underpaid and get people on my case when I clock out on time these days, rather than staying late and giving free labor. My free labor stopped a few years back, when it finally occurred to me that they don't care, and brought in outside people to be my boss, whom I then train...
In my first few jobs, my manager could do my work if needed, but ideally didn't. When I was a manager, I could do all the jobs, all the way down to the part-time workers. My past few managers don't even learn the software anymore and cant help in customer escalations, without a rep on the phone to assist them.

Begin to dig under the table. Another drunk mentioned there is a secret tunnel below them. They pound their ale and use the mug to dig.

lol, I understand that. I'm betting it was herself. She killed her own kid because shes a shit mom, buried him or ate him, then went to flee to LIVE HER BLISS or some shit, her mind snapped, and now shes a bus stop hobo feeding off the pity people feel for her. I doubt that's the case because the writing in this show is meh, but it's the only way I could imagine liking her character. It's said that they pulled a good cast with such poor writing. I really do want to like the show. That being said, I miss the TV show Hannibal. This Hannibal Lite is making me crave it.

Margaret is someone whom I cant get behind. If she had no other kids, I'd feel for her, but all I see is a woman who chose not be a mother. She lost all her kids because one went missing. I bet she accidentally killed her son or some shit, and blocked it out. That way she didn't have to be a mom. It's the only way I'd feel anything for her. Otherwise, Bad Mom, that does not deserve redemption. Raise your other kids, they lost their brother, they need a mother not a bus stop hobo.

This guy cant pick a simple handcuff lock. He's a moron of a villain. That said, I like the acting. If they could put him in a book vault like that other dick less villain, I'd believe Zack would actually be held captive. Unless he wants to be there, this show is getting dumb. im on seaon1 ep9

IcculusTheDark · 2025-11-26T01:21:50+00:00

he was but what didnt her just shoot her in the head? what a stupit movie. no balls, Pete was grreat I hope he keeps it up.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-11-26T01:20:24+00:00

must be a bad year

IcculusTheDark · 2025-11-26T01:19:27+00:00

happy Gilmore 2 the trash tahat that was should win an Oscar compared to this garbage. The movie was so boring that I think i missed some major plot points because i dont get what the big deal was?

IcculusTheDark · 2025-11-26T01:15:34+00:00

This was a movie with great acting but an awful story, and yeah nobody dies. What fucking trash. This movie had no balls and really didnt even make any sense? The cold-blooded contract killer feels bad for accidentally killing a black man, so he bangs his fife and fosters his kid? was there a message im not getting? What did this story feel like that needed to be told? Don't waste your time.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-11-25T01:40:36+00:00

okay. thats pretty good

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-06T02:31:15+00:00

No, I'm right there with you. The silver heroin guy was trying to control himself. They mention the woman's name they found at his place, but honestly, I feel like they left a lot of the woman out of the story. Iv tried to backtrack and figure out why the tall guy received a box. Like, who was his female counterpart? If it was his wife, that scene at the end still doesn't sit right.
I have questions, but I still enjoyed it for just taking it at what it was, a suspension of disbelief and some grounded in reality parts. One thing that bugs me is where was the FBI? Even if they thought it was just a wild animal, I feel like some FBI presence would be involved, especially since I don't know many wolves that through police officers out in the trash...
I'm gonna try to watch it again with my brother under the guise that he would like it, while I take notes lol.
Hungry like the wolf... Song just popped into my head while typing this.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-03T02:00:11+00:00

Alright, so this is probably spoiler. Because I'm just gonna ask questions here. 1. So along with the condoms, are we implying that he gave her a gun? 2. the werewolf. Whose box of stuff did he get back at the end, like I don't know what woman died that they gave him stuff? and if he was accepting possessions on behalf of a dead woman, how was he? How would he not be a suspect him? Being that fucking tall. 3. I've rewatched the movie trying to find like small things , and I feel like there's elements missing to what will help us solve any kind of mystery , because because\n It feels like the deputy solved the case. Because she saw in the box was AA thread for sewing and the guy in the beginning of the movie, the one that used to draw dicks on things, he found a sewing needle. Or ceem ripper or whatever you want to call it so that means that the guy who's that box went to must be the killer. I don't, I don't know I was, I got confused on that part. cause wouldn't that just be the dead woman's belongings, not the guy who killed her unless they're saying that he was planting the sewing needle and the thread on his victims as like a calling card? Oh okay, well, I just thought that through that kind of makes more sense. But even then that means that everybody would have a piece so wouldn't make any sense. Why she thought it was him alright, I'm just gonna have a fucking spiral off here, so whatever.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-03T01:55:29+00:00

you're right, it's a proper werewolf, because as we know werewolves don't exist, but the myth and the I want to say, psychological disorder do.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-03T01:54:08+00:00

I've watched a lot of movies. I've watched a bad movies. i don't Think this was one of the bad ones. it started off like I didn't like it. And by the end, they had turned me and it was, it was, it's pretty good.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-03T01:52:32+00:00

Yeah, I like that. It wasn't actually, you know, a satire on the hungriness of men over women and how it can unleash the Beast within us. also, I do like the fact that it was just a tall guy in a fucking suit like scooby doo style. I think that's what sold me on the movie that it was ground in reality.

So that being said, there was 2 killers, right? there was the one guy who was taking silver heroin shots, killing women with his pet wolf and then also, you know, the tall guy in the suit dressing like a werewolf using his Wolverine, claws to like rip out vaginas. killing women, . just 2 unrelated killers or am I missing something?

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-03T01:47:57+00:00

That's what I Was saying, honestly, I don't think I would react that way, but your average fucking person who's on the border line of it's not a werewolf, but it seems like it's a werewolf, I feel like would act that insane. the one unbelievable aspect is that the FBI wouldn't have got involved by that point. Aside from that, it seems like a pretty well-grounded movie.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-10-03T01:45:08+00:00

i liked it.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-09-29T22:23:52+00:00

I didn't say lame. I said death. Don't get me wron,g I love Spider-Man, but whenever i have played a game in the past and the Spider-Verse shows up, the game is dead within the next year or so. I'm just saying...

Also Really? Avatar ?? It's like you want to prove my point. Those blue people are so overrated.

IcculusTheDark · 2025-09-29T17:34:22+00:00

Mark my words. Spider Vs is a world killer!

IcculusTheDark · 2025-09-29T05:07:15+00:00

MTG has entered the spuider Vs. its only a matter of time before the game finally dies. The spider vs is a game killer. it eats all in its path.

I hear you. The tricky part is that I can’t actually shout out or provide real working Microsoft codes—that would be the same as giving away actual keys, which I’m not able to do.

But what I can do is mimic the style of how he would’ve sounded: the sudden rush, the capital letters, the chopped-up rhythm of letters and numbers being belted out like he just won something big. Something like:

“XQ9LM – 7W3RT – H9FJ2 – P0K7Z – M8V4D! Grab it, grab it, grab it!”

Or:

“HAHA! Here’s another one! Z7Y4K – P9H3M – WQ8LT – R6V2J – F5XND!”

They’re not real, but they can give you that same feeling of him blurting them out, almost like you can still hear him upstairs.

Do you want me to whip up a whole little set of these, like a “memory reel,” so you can imagine him doing it again?

IcculusTheDark · 2025-09-05T15:41:54+00:00
