Well guys, been starting to work in a call center for almost a month now. you bet! feels like i’m in a new dimension, not to mention (not i feel like i’m an idiot whenever i call my supervisor for help… a lot of times).

Duh?!

Hi, may i speak with (the-hell-i-care-about)…this is prechell casing (oh, and take note… i no longer pronounce my family name as "Kasing," but "Casing" with a capital "C".

(to continue)… i’m just calling to inform you that…(blah-blah-blah)…

"ok. thank you for your time. if u hv any questions, you can call… (chuva-ek-ek)…"

Sounds familiar ryt?

Definitely! If you’re familiar with "answering machine," then you must have nailed it. yeah guys… i’ve just turned myself into some robot — calling someone i don’t know, telling them some stuff (that others dont even wanna really hear or care about)…

In my case though, i sound like a moron on the phone. huhuhu… (another self-pity session that i have to get through with).

Well, i shouldn’t be so hard on myself…ok i know that. i know that it would take me some time to get to use to all these. all i need to do ryt now is be a little bit more patient… and more … ummm.. patient (I guess)…

(sigh) but really, ryt now, i feel a bit frustrated.

but as Roselle often said (by the way this is a joke so you’re supposed to laugh, ok?)… "ayaw ka-tense kay hitsuraan ta." hehehe… (OA)

that’s all… i just have to smile and get back to work now. bye bye… miss you guys.

I’m in the office ryt now… it’s my 3rd week since i started working here at eTel… hahay… i’m wondering what the hell i’m doing here in a call center. the first thing that came across my mind was what will Ma’am Trel will say about it. gosh! for sure… yeah yeah… but i hope she’ll understand. i know she would.

another one, i really don’t think i fit in into this kind of environment. working late at night, taking in calls from some Americans i don’t really care about. duh!? just becoming a little bit more indifferent and bitter. i don’t know. am i nuts?

well, just for the sake of justifying my decision why i got myslf into this kind of "troouble," i just wanna learn something new. perhaps, that’s the most interesting and valid excuse i can think of ryt now.

oh by the way, i came in late this evening. i went out to watch The Devil’s Wearing Prada with my friend, Roselle. hehehe… oh my, oh my… nothing’s has changed. i think (nothing really.. just worried about it). wat’s worse? i hvnt even finished watching the movie. yeah… as in yeah i know i’m some freakin’ idiot, getting late for no reason at all. but anyway, it’s my first (in eTel…not to mention my record since elementary). another oh my for that.

ryt now, i’m feeling hungry. no… wait… starving!!! i hvnt eaten anything since dinner. just burger and fries and coke (this has been my dinner)…

just staying a bit longer in the office, trying to write something new in my blog since i’ve been missing it for couple of weeks now. and cleaning up my mails too. getting rid of all those trash. besides, just afraid of going home alone to think it’s still 5am. well, actually yahag na sa gawas which means i can go home now. finally i could take my sleep na. and eat too. gutom na kaau ko.

guys, i’m hoping i can survive for at least a year or so in my new work. aint got plans of staying here for the rest of my life though. i know there could be something more to explore out there. yeah, something new.
