for the first time in my life, i’ve been fired from a job. lol. i mean seriously, i was going to jump ship in april but they beat me to the punch. what did i do? i had 3 occurances in 6 months – first occurance i called in sick. 2nd i was 12min late from lunch, and 3rd i showed up late for work because i overslept. keep in mind this is over a 6 month period; otherwise i was at work on time. i guess that’s what i get for working at a union; never again will i 1) work at a call center and 2) work for a union. i have made that my oath. i said i would never work at a call center again but verizon had good pay; just strict and crappy rules so i stayed.
oh well, the bright side is 1) i can now go back to school full time and finally finish my biology degree and also get my veterinary technician license and 2) work from home and not having to worry about having a job that i have to walk on eggshells every day i go in there. and worrying about who is going to fuck with me next or worrying about what bullshit i’m going to find in my email that day. another bright side is i’m going to try and make this the last employer i ever work for. if not, then it will certainly be the last call center job i will ever work.
being your own boss rules.
Hi Shaunie,
The flower pics show your "soft" side……..There are worse things than being single and one of them is being married…..I envy happily married couples but they are in the minority………..When I worked at UCLA I could hear the endless negative conversations of the married guys with their wives on the phone,,,,,,,,,,,scared hell out of me………I don't remember more than a couple of "good" marriages out of the 3 dozen or so in my department…..
