My New Job

Well I finally got a job! Yay! mostly yay.
I work for a company you may have never heard of, let me introduce you.










Convergys (CUHN-VER-JIS) Is a "great place to work with LOTS of opportunities for advancement!" Everyone is really nice and they're all convinced that this is the best place to work, ever.

I'm not so convinced. First of all it happens to be
down the road from a sewage plant. Yeah, it smells everyday, and its not even summer yet.

What do I do there? Oh I'm sorry, I forgot to say.



Yeah, I'm at a call center.


Not my first choice of jobs, but seriously, beggars can't be choosers.

And no I don't work with this guy, he just kind of makes me laugh.



Thankfully I'm not on a sales job. If you call FedEx Customer Service and I'm working and the call gets routed to our center and It happens to be me who takes the call- you might talk to me!

I'm a little frustrated because if I have to work right now (there is more to that comment than me being lazy) then I would like to be in a job where I can use the skills I paid good money to learn in school. I'd also like to work somewhere that will challenge and excite me. Somewhere fun! Somewhere it doesn't smell like the sewer.

I am however very grateful for the added income this will provide. After updating our budget and seeing the difference this will make I have felt really happy about it. Plus already I've made a few friends to eat lunch with.
