So my great place of work decided to start a new way of micromanaging. Nothing new at a call centre, I will agree. Of all the weeks to start this bullshit process and asinine idea, why this week? Are we not supposed to feel appreciated for once in our fucking lives? I hope that everyone quits this fucking job from hell. Thanks for making us all hate our lives just a little bit more. —FUCK YOU

  1. Start the train and quit. This isn’t China and you don’t work for Nike.

    What exactly did they change?

  2. It’s a call centre so I sympathize. Just be glad the screen savers don’t read “Arbeit Macht Frei”

  3. Tick…tick…tick…

    There goes another 3 seconds of your miserable life ebbing away, staying at a job you can’t fucking stand. Do your employer and yourself a favour and take a hike instead of whining like a little girly man.

  4. lol @ little girly man

    also lol @ OP thinking anyone gives a crap about customer service week, especially call centre managers.

  5. A call centre is a very predictable work envirement. No matter what the weather is outside, you will be sheltered. And, the customer on the other end of the phone can never spit, kiss or punch you.

    The difference between a good day at a call centre and a bad day at a call centre is how you chose to feel about it.

    Sure there will be days when you start happy and someone else sets you off and gets you into a bad mood. The skill that you need is the ability to turn your mood around and get back into the state that you want to be in.

    Even if you work in a centre where everyone around is bitter, it is still your choice on how you want to feel about it.

    Smile, it might be contagious.

  6. speaking of customer service…
    those coaster code monkeys are fucking with the post/facebook tie in again me thinks…

    I don’t know many people with the balls to want to put any posts on here as their Fb status…

  7. OB, I think I know where you work…and I have to say, I agree 100% with you. The place is equivalent to a terminal disease. It (and the management) absolutely suck the life right out of you and they take glee in doing so.

    My advice to you (and anyone else trapped in that shithole) is to GET OUT OF THERE ASAP! You are better than that place and deserve better. Don’t let it consume you. Just look at the amount of “lifers” they have and imagine yourself there. It’s terrifying.
