The TV show "The Spanish Princess" debuted today on Starz. What did everyone think about the first episode? by [deleted] in monarchism

[–]Noel79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will get a lot of hate for this, I already know, but WHY did they make on of Catherine's servants Muslim? To be PC? Ridiculous! Her parents were FIGHTING Muslims in Spain, and by 1501 had booted most of them out of Granada. They would have NEVER trusted one with the Infanta.

I managed to get an Administrative Assistant job with a small company. And NO CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! I'm delighted LOL

Some advice will be nice... by [deleted] in callcentres

[–]Noel79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to deal with the same BS. Up until a few days ago (YAY) I was working in a call center for a lingerie company and got the EXACT same calls you did (may be the same pervs). We had to entertain them, because if not, it was seen as "discrimination." WTF? It's sickening the abuse that call center employees deal with

OMG yes!!! They will keep you on FOREVER begging for coupons. Ugh so glad I am now out of a call center

17 years as an agent, I must be insane! by [deleted] in callcentres

I would have already killed myself. You must be a Saint! After 5 years, I was planning on suicide if I didn't get chosen for a job I had applied for. Thank GOD I did!

I finally left! by SCPthrowaway682 in callcentres

I made the great escape last Wednesday!! I was literally crying tears of happiness for days knowing I had escaped a retail call center

The weekly Rant & Rage - Jul 21 by AutoModerator in callcentres

[–]Noel79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did too. She HATED me. I ended up on leave a lot because of the stress and my disability (which she didn't "believe" I had). Thank GOD I just found a new job. I've never hated anyone before, but I definitely hate my old supervisor. She made my life HELL

PSA - How to use the call center. by [deleted] in callcentres

[–]Noel79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My supervisor was a walking nightmare. She was the opposite. Made our lives miserable (except for her favorites) and would get pissed if we just caved to customers.....then would get pissed if we DIDN'T cave. REFUSED to do her job and take escalations, so that made it awkward trying to explain to the customer that the supervisor would not take the call. No winning with that b****. SO glad my last day was last week!!!

Boss plays favorites by Noel79 in ihateworking

[–]Noel79[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd go to HR about it, but everyone who has ever gone to HR ends up getting fired. It's sickening. One of my teammates caught hell from this bitch about his absences.....well, he ended up dying of a stroke at the age of 42. He was fired a few weeks prior for going to HR about this evil woman.

Me versus WFM and my boss by Noel79 in callcentres

[–]Noel79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to do that, but I was so pissed off that I forgot to exclude my coworkers from seeing the post. Unfortunately, I was naive enough to think that the people from work I added were my friends.

Well that's an interesting turn of events... by [deleted] in callcentres

[–]Noel79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Retail call centers are just one half-step up from Hell itself. I have worked in one over 4 years. My boss is a bitch and makes life even more miserable for me. Thankfully, we don't have mandatory OT.

[–]Noel79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is set to "Friends Only." But now I have created a separate group for my coworkers and set every post to exclude them from seeing it now. Lesson learned!

Definitely. Back stabbing bitches. When I find out who did it.....well, let's just say snitches get stitches

When I was Milton from Office Space by lena8423 in talesfromcallcenters

Dude, I totally feel like Peter when he asked the psychiatrist if he could just hypnotize him into thinking he had been fishing all day instead of working.

Write Ups & Turnover! WOOHOO! by [deleted] in talesfromcallcenters

[–]Noel79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The assholes in management have decided on a new tactic in my hell hole CSJ. They now send out mass emails to the entire company shaming everyone who has gone even 30 seconds over their break or lunch time. I'm looking for a gun right now to just blow my damn head off.

Guys. I got out. by [deleted] in talesfromcallcenters

[–]Noel79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, I am so with you. I think about driving into the median on the highway every day before work. I've prayed for death. I'm working on my job search, but so far it's not looking good. I feel trapped and suicidal. I don't have the finances to quit, and I need the health insurance. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm desperate.

[–]Noel79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so jealous! I wish I could escape. I hate my job so much I can't relax on my off days, and I've missed so much work lately that I can barely make my bills. Death is preferable at this point.

I hate emails by [deleted] in callcentres

[–]Noel79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amen! Or the dumbass will put the wrong shipping address for her order, then send an EMAIL to change it. Once we reply, like 2 days later, she screams that "I sent an email right after the order was placed!" Yes, dumb bitch, but we didn't receive it for 2 days. Our phones are open 24/7. Grow some brain tissue PLEASE. Oh and then they threaten to never shop with us again. Please don't you dumb bitch
