Hendrix Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) To be fair, you dont have to be a lick arse to get validated.Nor should you be extremely offencive towards people, and the companies that they work for Edited February 14, 2007 by Hendrixmaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted February 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 A job is a job yeah. At the end of the day it'll give you £ GBP. You need this to live, be it pay rent, buy food, fuel your car, fuel your drug, sex what ever habit. You need money to live.Some here really work there ass off to get buy and have a good bike, other get it given to them and will learn when they have to live in the real world.I once worked for Mc D's. Out of running my own shop, frame building for ARC, this IT stuff. It was the best. Hours are crap, shit anyoing things to do and anyoing customers but youd had a laugh. You'd get randoms in, drunk, women being really filrty. Alwyas gonna have an amazing manger in there gives no shit towhat goes on at all. Money is poor, hours are long but free food, countless discount and great friendship but when a customer make a nice coment you feel good! Oh and these places have a lot of comen work do's!So wether you clean toilets all day, spit on people burgers or build bikes in Halfords it doesn;t matter. You could be a bum for all sorts of reasons and living off the state which us working people pay for. A job is a job and it pays it way for you to live and go do things.So don't be so f**king disrespectfull of one persons job to the other nor get into detial of what they earn. More you earn the more you've proberly had to suck or f**k your manger but go to uni and get into countless debt. Just means in +30 years you can be earning 50K+ and really enjoy life debt free etc.Remeber a job is you living, not a passing phase. Your job role is the passing phase as you can always go up the ladder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 This may sound terribly racist......do you have to talk in an Indian Accent or Stong Jordie Accent ??! No, but everyone who has called us before says 'was I talking to you just a minute ago' then we have to explain to the retards that we are actually based in northern ireland, so everyone talks this way. Having sai all that, there are the odd people who you do want to help, and who are polite and have an ounce of common sense, it's when you have to start repeating thing's over and over, when kids are in the background shouting an screaming (even worse when it's adult's) and then we have the pricks who will not give out their name, postcode and 1st line of their address, yet expect me to tell them information? they get their calls 'terminated' haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wright Pads Posted February 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 HA HA!!!When ever I phone up Dell Tec Department, they're always in India, and I can't understand them "Sorry, did you say chicken curry or what's your serial number" O.OI 2nd this when you call them but you just ask to speak to an Dell tec and they transfer you to Irland. It's not that much better but least soemthing will be sorted via e-mail!Mind lots of companies now pulling out of these India based centers due to no one calling now! Cardif is the wrost for call centers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That usually get's them to wise up somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I though you had to say that as that what you were taught and is writen in the terms and con and contratc!what terms and con and contract?I only sign a contract of employment, it has nothing to do with the campaign we are assigned to. We are advised to warn people we will finish the call, and I think it's only fair to do so, but there is NOTHING in our contract relating to how calls should be taken, not even regarding data protection.I don't get paid to take shit, im there to help people. I give them the best advice/solution I can with what's given to me. If they arn't satisfied with that i'll remind them of what i'm doing for them, and if they still give me shit i'll reach over and push a button. They end up being EXTREMLEY frustrated as someone has just hung up on them because they are getting on like a child, and even if they do call back, whoever can listen to the call, and confirm that I wasn't rude, aggresive or anything like that to the caller.

Krisboats Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 what, so your dad charges £80 an hour + materials???No wonder it's a small business!!Nah, i get half the profit, and the total cost of the job is split into 3. One third goes into the maintenance and buying inks/parts etc. and the other 2/3'rds is split between me and him. So its like £180 for a 10,000 sheet job. Its only a small business because its a small garage . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambton Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Im a full time student at Sunderland UNI...with only three months to go!!!I work part time at Halfords in the Bikehut. Heres the crack with Halfords, Im just a part timer and really really dont care about my job!! Not that I dont do a good one whilst I am there though! In fact I spend most of my time throwing stuff into the over head fans because I'm so sick of having nothin to do, or taking the piss out of customers who take the piss out of me (because I work in a shop they treat me like S**t).Dont get me wrong though, working in Halfords is good crack, all the lads are sound!
