sbucu57 I have been working in the same call center company for more than five years and what you said was true. The nature of the job maybe taxing but not only that you get to learn but help other people as well, including the ones who declined to be help. You also...

How do you respond to gossipmongers?

sharksfin @sharksfin (1091) • Philippines 6 Jul 12

What they say often pierce us. Ruins us. And, worse, it hinders the beginning of our friendship with other people. I don't know why there are people who simply can't contain their mouths. They can't help but advertise their filthy...

chasecalice @chasecalice (190) • Philippines 18 Jul 12

bingskee @bingskee (5234) • Philippines 13 Jul 12
