I'm doing 43 things
They actually fired me! Well, no surprise, my benefits were about to kick in, and they did a few rounds of firings, for the most ridiculous things. Me? I hung up on a customer. Apparantly, I damaged company relations with one person by hanging up on him after listening to him call me every name in the book for five minutes, so badly that I needed to be immediately released. Without any sort of warning (I had never even been written up or given a verbal warning prior). Ridiculous, especialy considering I was 21st for sales out of almost 200, and told I was one of the most knowledgable and effective people on the phones.
But I guess that’s what you get. You work a crap job, you’re going to get treated like crap. I already have a better paying job lined up, and I’ve applied to go back to school. All the same, I’m shocked and p*ssed off with the way many of us were treated as expendible, after being with this company from day one.
Man, if I’d known they were going to fire me, I would have told the guy off instead of just hanging up on him. He got off easy.
