the Real is a motherf***er

Okay, so it's a line from Ali but it applies, dammmit!

I HATE my new job. So much. A million times over. Really, extremely shit.
I work ten hours a day on a switchboard, talking to really irate people, who shit all over me, because the rest of the employees are too damn inefficient to return a phone call. Not even a lunch break, just ten straight hours of pissed off Brits.

Some lady wanted to speak to my manager this afternoon, because I dared to suggest that the service staff may only get back to her tomorrow. I mean!??! Here I'm being honest enough to say that we have a backlog and that's why no one returned her call (received ten minutes prior), and she craps all over me. AND she's a lucky one, most people I speak to have been waiting for a reply for a week.

Oh well, its money.

Those of you who are still students, know this: Never again in your life will you have as much freedom, or flexibility - relish it!

P.S. sorry for the rant...had to be done.
P.P.S. Happy Valentines thingy bla bla*
P.P.P.S check out the valentines postings on post a secret - they're awesome!

*Read "bah humbug"

Hey there

The joy of the switchboard... some days i've walked out of a placement like that feeling stupider. Try Crone Corkill or Hays if you want a job in london, they are both really good.
