Good luck lass. Next time when you want to scream, For mercy's sake, please don't face the land of Aussie, at this time I have three koalas, half a dozen galahs and two families of possums (one ringtail and the other brush tails) in a state ot traumatic stress needing most of my attention to calm them..

Th company is called K designers, their a home remodeling company. They sell Siding and double pained window's. The office I will be working in should I be hired is their coperate office, and they have offices in 11 states. I'd basically be a telemarketer . I don't mind that though, I know people could be rude and most often are, but I'd be making great money for someone who's entry level only had one job before, and that job truely sucked.

big it's all automated dialing, you don't have to dial a thing.

psst ya'all by the way the new profile pictures are the outfit and hair I had done to go to the intial meeting.

Good luck, from another call center employee.

Be aware, the job is stressful...but the salary can be rewarding.

I once drove an hour and a half to and from work every day. It was not worth the gas!

But the good thing for you might be that you can get off of SSI if you're making that much money.

AS SSI is good if you're trying to go to school and don't need some boss breathing down your neck, which I am. I am going to school, but I'm not making enough money on SSI right now. I've had quite a few big bills knock me on my ass, and I am taking a trip soon. So if I get the job that will more than make up for the 30 min commute.

My last job wasn't worth it. We were cut co ccutlery sales reps. Gas alone ate up any profit we wuld make. and honestly most people just don't want to see sales people. It's not unlike calling someone up on a phone heheh that most people w*on't be interested. but at least I'd be making money Cut co didn't pay you unless you went out and saw people. It was 12 dollars per visit, but only if you went out an did the speal, well nobody wanting to see a sales person ment you were not going out.

some jobs are so not worth it, you're right. Like with cutco cutlerry like I was saying, 12 dollars a visit sounds good, and it sounded great that it was weather or not you made a sale. Well the honest plain truth was they were jipping employee's I'd done 5 visits in that week alone, and my paychecks were not as high as they should of been, and they said it was cause I didn't make any commisions. and then later on it started interfearing with school, I was in highschool at the time and they had mandatory once a week 8 am to 10 pm boreing as hell update meetings. It was also costing my dad a fortune in gas, as he was driving me back then. the boss was phoney balogne too, He gave us the speil that he's our friend if we need anything or are having job problems come talk to him. however the minute you did he had some dismissive answer at the drop of the hat to not talk to you with. plus, honestly, their product was way freaking over priced, it wasn't even all that much nicer than some of the nicest things k mart or walmrt sold. And also honestly, nobody really wants to sick sales people on friends. We didn't do door to door saleing we had to have referances, Cut co tries to be very upscale and because of the over price'dness of their items have to by neeed. Your average 25 year old single person wouldn't really spend that much money on cutlery. so people needed to be about 30 married and like to cook. 12 dollars per visit sounds pretty exotic, but when nobody wants you to come show them the product, it boils down to no show no dough. Plus 12 dollars a visit don't nearly begin to make up for the cost of gas driving to all these people.!!!!
