Blahhh! Well its the weekend again and because of stuff happening during the week, the blog took the back row. Lets recap on the week past.
I have a 'temping' job at the moment working for a company (for all intents and purpose, it shall remain nameless) that 'helps people fill in a particular little form' - no prizes for guessing what I am doing. Its not toooooooo bad, the pay sucks but at least it will pay off this and that and bring forth an ale or two. The customers arent too bad compared to Telco/ISP customers and they aren't too bad to talk to. The average talk time for this fiasco is 80 seconds (what ever happened to customer service). On my first day what happens - an elderly lady that wanted a step by step walk through of both forms :( Result - that call took 28 minutes! Other calls bought that call length down but then the last call was another walk through so that blew things out of the water again - brilliant. Team Leader passed mention at the end of shift that the calls were long. I replied asking what do we do then? Tell the person to foff off? No reply :)
My previous employer has still stuffed up my partial incentive payment that was due by end of February. I am pleased that I haven't (as is usual) lost my temper and abused all and sundry over this but have instead bit the tongue and taken things as they have come. Hopefully next week something will come through.
BBQ Whole Chicken tonight accompanied by coldies. ODI today with Windies vs Black Caps @ Eden Park so should be a great arvo.
