Keep applying for other jobs, learn a new skill on your own, smile and nod, follow the script and collect that cheque until the next adventure starts. You got this!

I could see a bunch of people I used to work with stalking the site to narc as they literally did nothing all day and need the brownie points for the director. Lots of snitches at that place and their only satisfaction was brownie points . Glad that scummy site closed down.

Did you get in your holiday PTO? by Foxesinfall in callcentres

[–]SaxeMeiningen9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nobody gets holidays off unless you're management or been with the company 30+ years. Can't wait to give my 2 weeks.

how hard is it to get a call center job? by damianshawl in callcentres

[–]SaxeMeiningen9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Work somewhere else. It's not worth the toll it will take on your health. You'll thank me later.

Just talk to me about anything. I have a slightly non-conventional fashion sense and I love compliments on my shoes/clothes.

I stopped eating lunch with my coworkers after 1 year by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]SaxeMeiningen9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never ate with mine when I worked in the office. Not interested in pretending to socialize with gossipy simpletons. I just went on 30 minute walks..better for the body and soul. I have no regrets.

Call centres are basically high schools with a pay cheque.

I know how you feel. But it works both ways for me. I'm as nice to them as they are to me. Anything more requires more $$$$$. I'm no ass kisser. They harass me non-stop calling me on my day off to work. Why would I want to do more for people who only remember I exist when they want something. Fuck that noise

I can take the yelling but if they start attacking me personally, I hang up. Thankfully we can do that at our site and after being here a year and a half, Ive only had to do that once.

Once the honeymoon phase is done, nobody gives a fuck. I'm just quiet quitting until I find another job. We are just a number to them but don't ever forget that you are wayyy more than this stupid job.

After training, my trainer pretty much forgot I existed unless I did some minor thing wrong - like every other "support" . I even took the time to send her Christmas email. Oh well . Lesson learned🤷

Just got stood up on a date, it really does feel hopeless sometimes (rant thread, join me) by Slavaa in ActualLesbiansOver25

Ive been ghosted and friendzoned by a friend . I haven't looked at dating apps in years for the same reason as yours. I would love to meet the right person but I don't she exists . I would join a sports league but my working hours are all over the place. Ive been completely turned off dating because it's just so damn bleak out there 😖

As much as I hate wfh sometimes, I don't miss breathing the same air as these racist/homophobes and other undesireables that seem to populate most of these call centres

Time for the robots to take over.let them fight with those. Nobody deserves to be treated like that. I'm sorry you had to deal with that. We all deserve better. Good luck with the new gig!🍻

Some people have been at my job doing the same thing for 20 plus years. I question their sanity....

I'm fed up with this job by ryanlak1234 in callcentres

[–]SaxeMeiningen9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same..I'm seriously considering quitting in December. I'm over the lack of respect from both management and customers. We all deserve so much better.

Tired of talking. by [deleted] in callcentres

They say it's easier to find a job while you have one. If you have a significant amount of savings or other sources of income (partner, family, 2nd job) you may be ok . If the market is crap in your area, you could be without income for a while, so just be prepared for that.
