It is good to know things that you enjoy outnumbered the things that annoy you. ^_*
- Update on me as of 05.31.11 -
I got the job back. The manager advised me this morning to report for work tonight. I was short of .12% to pass the overall score in the training camp. The thing is, I already applied with another company yesterday. I am waiting for them to call me. The new call center I applied is bigger. I will bargain for a higher pay should they hire me. Thanks for the encouragement my friend. :)
