I think I may have a temporary job in one.
Im going to be selling window's 
A couple of my mates have tried working in them, and quit before the week has ended.
Are they really that bad?

yeah full time after leaving school and then part time whilst at college, fucking hated it mind numbing , and most have such a poor attitude towards there staff; infact most call centres have a very high labour turn over the one i was at was like 70 %
then again some people enjoy it no idea why lol.

According to one of our customers, Ms means that they're a lesbian, or that they're fat and ugly and their husband has left them
