Yeah, so, I’m amazing. I knew this, but just in case my reading personalities didn’t. On Monday the 4th I got some calls, one of which lead to an interview the next day (Tuesday). Which was totally awesome, on Tuesday I basically had a job. I started my training this Monday the 11th, which, I must say was pretty boring. They gave us manuals about the company and I was reading through it while the teacher was explaining and I basically figured out what I needed to do on the computer for that day before the rest of the class. (I’m trying not to let my ego get in the way.)
I think it bugs me slightly when people say, ‘We’ when they refer themselves as part of a company, like their included in the ant colony of clones and don’t get an opinion. Just how they word some things, sort of gets my eye twitching from the dislike I have for the whole Team Effort idea. I think the ‘Team Effort’ phase companies pull is shit, but when people start believing it or actually act upon it then that’s when shit becomes productive. For example, I don’t see how it’s a team effort when you have a supervisor or manager telling you what to do. The manager and I are not working together as equals, the manager and I are having higher rank problems.
The only team I support isssss *Drum Roll*, Go Team Food! (Stole that from Esteban). I’m such a team player <3.
I don’t think I follow very well under rules either. I can take directions, I just don’t like it when people are forcing me on one path..
When I come to think about it, that’s very contradicting.
Oh, how companies say, “Every Employee is important to us.” or along those lines. It really depends on what sort of job some people are involved in, like as call-centre-buggeree (like myself as of recently) I’d hardly think people would be included to that because those people can easily be replaced and there are so many of them that if one were to get fired the company would still keep running without care. Though, if you’re some big CEO dude who brings in about 40% of the company’s profit, then, obviously, you’re a lot worthy and important than the call-centre-buggeree.
Haha, “That’s discrimination!!”
