Yes, I worked in a call center for ten years and after that I could not take it anymore. I was fortuante to find another job with in the company and I have been in this position for eight years. I think I will leave and do something else in two years. I think twenty years with the same company is enough for me.

Would love to know.

Have a great day! Happy mylotting!

Yes I too have worked for a call center. I know how painful it is to be awake in night and help people who are far away. Nevermind its always a good experience.

I'm working in a call centre now!! LOL.. I just left my previous call centre about 8 months back and now I'm in a much professional call centre and with much better prospects. There are pros and cons with both call centres. But I'm sticking with this because for one, there's career advancement and it's a Fortune 500 company.
The benefits are good, the hr is not too bad, and the best part, career advancement! Sure, there's the stress, but what I like about it is that I do not need to bring work back home. I just need to do my 8 1/2 hour shift and just finish it. Then I'm done.
I do not get calls regarding meetings and things I have to do, just leaving work at work. which is what I want right now.:)
Who knows, that the next year, that I'll get a promotion because I know I'm really good in my job and I'm pretty sure that I'll be able to handle things and be more responsible.

I currently working as an Emergency call taker agent here in the Philippines. It's a special program for police assistance, rescue and Medical assistance. It's really hard at the first time to handle a calls like life threatening conditions. Some callers get mad and insult you. Some will piss off your day. But now I can used to it.
