How long have you had your current job?

2 years

A week

So about my current job... I wouldn't compare it to deleting accounts, but I have been moved 3 times now (I think he's deleted his account more than that). It's kind of frustrating each time it happens, but then you settle in...

I started in Feb. in Illinois (where I reside) doing covid 19 vaccination work. Then due to call volume and vaccine supply (at the time, very low), I was switched over to the TN call line. I really wasn't sure what was going on the day this happened, because I didn't see the email telling me I was being transferred until the next day. So I attended a remake class for people who missed the email or just didn't see it in time, and they explained the ins-and-outs. It was basically just like IL, but some slight differences like time zones could land in eastern zone, and stuff like that. I got used to that job. I liked the TN end. We had quality assurance ratings checks each month, and we'd be scored. Any score over 91 landed you a $100 bonus. In my 3 months on TN, I landed three 100 QA scores. I've been paid for 2 of my bonuses, and supposedly, the last was/is to come out on the first paycheck in August. But about 3 weeks or so ago, I was sent an email that I'd be being transferred to the NJ end. I knew TN was running on fumes at this point, so I wasn't too upset. A lot of nice people on the TN side that I miss talking to, and the hours. Initially, NJ was going to be 6:45 CT to 2:15 CT or something like that. And Mon-Fri. I really didn't think I could handle getting up at 6:00 every day, after being used to getting up at 7:30-8, so I asked if I could have a different schedule. I kind of regret this proposal now, and I kind of don't. I now work Mon-Thur (as opposed to 5 days a week like I had in IL and TN--both 8:30am-5pm, save for a brief period I was working the graveyard shift in IL from 3:30pm-12am which was horrible) and get Friday off. My work hours are a lot longer, though... 9:30am CT to 7pm CT... it's a long day. Mon-Tue is usually outbound calling where we have to make over 100 calls minimum (I top out around 170 on good days) and then Wed and Thur seem to be inbound calls for L1 (level 1) agents, while L2 can make outbound calls (I passed my test for L2 but am awaiting the state's approval...they can take their time), as opposed to the inbound which volume is super low for. The only calls I really get are from people telling me they've been vaccinated and have been receiving constant phone calls from us. Then I fill out a form with them (assuming they will) and hope it takes them off the list. Initially when I was transferred over, I couldn't get into any of my programs at all, so for a day I essentially got paid to do literally nothing. It was kind of cool. I really like my supervisor on the NJ side, and I like the team I'm assigned with. It could be worse...but it has become a grueling type of job that I would border on saying I hate.

I prefer inbound because it's so easy, but the day does drag. Outbound is basically cold calling people and some people hate that crap, so it gives me some anxiety. But inbound... a lot of internet browsing and crap. I should get into reddit.

I'll have been with the company for a year on August 15th. I've been at my current job for almost 4 months now after switching departments.

4 years.

Almost at the 5 year mark, time flies!

21 years.

About to start my 9th year of teaching at my current school.

Been through a few random jobs, never lasting more than a year. Hated most of them. Currently self employed (photographer) and been working for myself for 8 years. I'm hoping it lasts forever, but with photographers in generally not really being needed as much anymore, I can't see it happening sadly. If I get another 5 good years out of it, I'd be happy.

.. then I can go back to being miserable in other jobs again, haha.
