So.....if anyone recalls in 2015 I got laid off from my telecom job, that I had for 12 years. I ended up working in a call center for a bank, which I HATED so much. I went from a job where I was valued, and treated like an adult, to a place that micromanaged to death, didn't allow anything normal, treated like a child, and forced to be in a brightly lit rah rah type atmosphere, which as an introvert I really freaking hate. Plus I made shit money. And the calls, I never listed any of them here because it was so much of the same damn thing, it was repetitive. Anyway I have done that for 5 solid years. Now because of Covid I have been on leave for 4 and 1/2 months, which has been a deliciously wonderful break.
On to the latest -- I got recruited by the phone company that took over the phone company for the states in the Northwest, starts with a Z. For the same kind of job I had before! In short, I got it! I'm making the most money I've ever made in my life, I'm back to doing a job I love, and I get to work from home! As an introvert this is my dream job. I finally feel like I can live up to my username again haha.
This all just went down, I still have to quit the old one. Sometime....soon. I'm on leave so whatever they haven't paid me to work in months. They've been promising to have us work from home but they are dragging their feet on this, they just can't stand the fact that they have to trust us children. So because of that, they are losing a 5 year veteran of a tough job. You can't just walk into this, you have to have 2 months of training, and then it takes a couple years to really get it down. So if they want to lose a productive person, instead of treating them better, that's their prerogitive.
