Finally Landed The Job I Always Wanted!

[Dan]

As the title says.

Saw this job offer a couple weeks ago on mycareer.com.au where a hosting company were looking for Customer Support reps. So I said, "Well, all they can say is yes or no". They said Yes!
Bloody chuffed to bits.
Start tomorrow. 5 days a week, 6 hours a day.

Congrats bru. Hopefully that luck will rub off on me as I sent my resume to a company that is exactly like a place I worked at before. Hopefully the back surgery from last year wont put too much a damper on it.

Good luck. If its your first call center job, then YOU WOULD GET FRUSTRATED SOON.

So stay focused. I have been in call center industry for 7 years

I am still dreaming get a job like this
Congratulations bro!

 

[Dan]

Thanks everyone.
It really is a dream job and loving it so far.
Regarding getting frustrated, I do agree. It is easy to get frustrated. But I think, because it is not my business, and I am just the employee, or one of many lol, I tend to lay back a little and try to be as polite as possible. It helps to solve issues a lot faster and more professionally.

Call center, call center.. I remember when I worked for Samsung Electronics North America giving top tier computer support. THAT was fun, walking 60+ year olds on how to take apart a multi-function printer and describing window's logos that are on the keyboard lol.

Frustration was kinda funny at times - just as long as it doesn't go overboard. Just have a good time with the whole deal and it'll be good stuff.

Keep us updated with any cool highlights

Congrats on your dream job!

Whenever I call customer support I get people who sound like they hate their lives and their jobs. I'm sure you are your customers' dream rep!

hahaha. Thanks mate.
Well, having being a customer of many hosting companies and now working for one, I have had insight to both ends and realise what goes on behind the scenes to ensure that all customers are well looked after.
One thing I can say about these guys is they are all down to earth, fun to work with and really know their job.

I was recently fired from my job, which consisted of hosting, website design, consultation and computer repair. I was fired for an illegitimate reason. But yeah. Good for you =]
