Who works in a call center?




You do. Ido.We all do. In fact, I would venture that, at some point, almost everyone has worked in a call center. They are perfect "stop over"points between "real" jobs. Everyone that takes a job in a call center believes it will only be for a short time until something better comes along. The sad reality is that "something better" takes approximately ten times longer than originally expected, turning a "good for now" job into a prison sentence. It may also be surprising the variety of people that work in call centers. I have worked alongside artists, writers, actors,and recording artists. Many of these people have received high levels of education and multiple degrees. We have bills to pay. We have children to support. We are not working in call centers because we want to be judged, although judgement is an albatross that we wear around our necks on a daily basis.
