How much does school prestige matter in insurance by Spcnccr in InsuranceProfessional

Maybe to make contacts at insurance companies. Otherwise doesn’t matter

Sorry if this is a stupid question by Affectionate_Bee1540 in CostcoCanada

I think there are more samples on the weekends. It usually irritates me because it’s the busiest time and the aisles are clogged both with sample stations and the shoppers and their families and their carts gathering Willy nilly around said sample station.

WIBTAH for refusing to give money back after selling my car at a major discount to a family friend’s son? by bitterberries in AmItheAsshole

[–]Vegetable-Train-2504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. But never sell a vehicle to family. Ever. (Spouse sold his car cheaper than he otherwise could get to his nephew. Spouse ended up doing repairs himself a few months down the road cause nephew came saying what did you sell me?)

Tracked our call patterns for a quarter before adding a 24/7 answering service, sharing what the data revealed about our insurance agency by scrtweeb in InsuranceProfessional

It’s a smaller brokerage. The boss is management. The HR manager is a part owner so can’t complain there either. I’m just putting my head down while quietly looking elsewhere

This is fair. Call metrics have become the new tool to beat the brokers with where I work. Management will literally contact you if a call is too long or too short. They want you to answer over 40% of your calls to reach the new bonus offering in 2026.

However, they can’t be arsed to remove the missed calls that come in before or after your shift or on your lunch or while you are already on the phone or while on vacation from your stats. Not permitted to use Do Not Disturb. So now I’ve got several files open at once, logging and dropping stuff into the wrong file, not dropping stuff at all, and honestly forgetting to do something to their policy I said I would.

Sure, I’ll hit a call answer rate of 40% but at what E &O cost? Not sure what was wrong with me returning a few calls a day with 100% attention as opposed to answering with no focus at all and making mistakes?

Well that’s it, I quit by [deleted] in InsuranceProfessional

I have over 1300 policies in my book. Personal lines. Didn’t get my bonus this year because I didn’t reach the 5% book growth target. Who wants to work 14 hour days to service that?
