Who wants beef?
I would just like to rant a little bit on an issue that has been literally itching in my pants for quite some time now. The issue deals with the whole call center "industry" that seems to be booming in this country. Now, why would I even write something on this topic anyway? Well, maybe it’s because I care, or maybe it’s because I am disgusted by what I see everyday on the streets of Ortigas. Surely, the money is good. There is no doubt about that. They will teach you "Call center english", so you can conversate with your fellow call center agents as if you have been speaking english your whole f*cking life. Now, aint that fun? Well guess what all you pretty boys & girls? This is your wake up call. Before you post yourself on the ground floor of your building, smoking your cigarette and littering the butt on the street, wearing your greenhills gucci sunglasses, just imagine where you will be five years from now. You just wasted your mom and pop’s savings putting you through college. Let’s just say you finished accounting in college. Do you seriously think you can add your call center job as work experience? I think not. Let’s say that something happens to your job, maybe the company closes, or maybe you just got tired of answering the freaking phone for five f*cking years of your life. You decide that you want a real career, so you go and apply for a job as an accountant. Surprise mofo, what you learned from college 5 years ago, aint gonna do sh!t for you now. And do you seriously think that you can even remember everything you learned in college? There are many fresh grads out there with the knowledge, that can blow you away from that entry level position you are applying for. People are mean’t to sleep at night and be awake in the morning. You’re giving up your health to earn enough for that starbucks coffee that you’re drinking everyday. Now, is that even practical? Stop making excuses that you can’t find a job in your field. The truth is, there are companies that are being built everyday. And if still you can’t find a job, ask yourself why you took that course in the first place. Wake up people! Don’t even try to tell me off in your call center english, because I will tell you to your face how stupid you really look. To call my call center friends, im sorry im just speaking my mind :). You have a problem? Call me, gets?
