    Well done that man.

    Whereabouts you looking for a house?


    The older I get, the better I was.

    I was looking for a job and then I found a job, but heaven knows I m miserable now.

    Well done Willhub :D keep smiling mate.

    Was the threat of DD finding you gainful employment which drove you to it.

    I'm just scared of the job a bit, sort of what I've heard, contract workers not having much rights, call centres have super high turnover, I could make a small mistake, I know there is 4-6 weeks training but still, I don't want to get sacked! This 6 months experience could be essential for me getting a job in the future!

    Have to have thick skin to work in a call centre, but those that can hack it tend to thrive and the financial rewards can sometimes be good for successful people. Good luck.

    Thank f*ck. Now i'm the king of the miserables.

    Willhub - that out of control thick thick greeny stuff is now going to be spread to all of the call centre workers.
    How many are there ? 50, 75, 100 ? Say 75 half of whom have 2.2 children who then take the green stuff to their schools in an urban area.... hmmmm, lets see, 37 X 2 X 200 (5 schools) X 5 = 50million squillion. So as soon as I get over this batch of the thick green stuff, i'll get hit again as the pandemic spreads. Why did you get a job in a call centre, you bas**rd ?
