So, I had a WFH job that I absolutely loathed. It was customer service and just the worst.
We have an 8hr shift with only a 30min break. U have another 8min for the whole day to use the bathroom, yes u are timed on using the bathroom.
U can't hangup on customers even if they're being ridiculously rude and insulting or u get written up. They watch/listen to all your calls and give u a QA score. This wouldn't be so bad if they actually trained us properly. How are u going to grade someone on a system they never even interacted with before their very first call? Horse shit.
The pay. Only $14/hr after taxes that's $10.75 btw. Worked 2 weeks full time for a measley $800. Just for a moment..5 days a week, 8hrs a day, if u do the math that 71% of your week going to work. That's almost 3/4 of my time spent at work…for less than $1k on a paycheck. Yea no.
This morning I kept waking up and couldn't sleep because I was so anxious and miserable about this job. I couldn't sleep or eat and I was in a terrible mood for hours. All I could focus on was how I didn't want to do that job for 8hrs today. I actually called out all last week too.
But about an hour into my shift I sent my resignation and left. I can't do it. It's not worth my mental health for fucking $800 a check. And after quitting I INSTANTLY felt Soooo much better, I even immediately got hungry and ate. And now I'm about to take a much needed nap
Fuck the work force and fuck jobs who treat us like we don't deserve to make a living and be happy.
