There are worse things than working in a call centre. Mr Wench and I have both worked in them when it has been necessary.

Simple really, the locals in Leighton Buzzard find it hard to type with webbed fingers & 2 extra thumbs so they brought in outside labour whistle:

I've worked in one for close to six years now. Originally got the job to keep me going after being made redundant at BT but got into the dialler/data side of things not long after starting.

Good man!  happ096

Also, it is easier to actually get a job if you have one... once you are up-and-running with them you can keep your eyes open for another...  happy088

I applied for a job today, up in the smoke. I hope I don't get it, as it would involve public transport :-(

I fully intend not to get the job  whistle:   Little phrases like "can't abide fools" and "corporate myopia" tend to have the desired effect.
