It may be weird but I actually like this job... I am real good at it! I think I get it from my Dad. :)
So I have worked there a total of 3 full days and every day I have had something funny happen to me so I have decided to make it into a blog post :)
Day 1:
(please remember this was only my second day on the phones)
So I start taking a survey from this lady... and in the middle of one of the questions
I ask her I hear snoring really loud through the phone..... and I say "Ma'am? are you still there?" and a few seconds later she wakes up and says "Oh! yep I'm here! Can you repeat the question!?" holding back laughs I repeat the question. Throughout this one survey this happens a total of 3 times! I was laughing silently through the entire thing!
Day 2:
Today I was on a roll getting survey after survey! I was in the zone!! and in the middle of one of my surveys I hear people yelling my name... Of course I don't respond because I am on the phone. But I start to worry that I am in trouble or I messed up a survey or something. But then Jordan, one of the monitors, and Cory, front desk man, come over to me and I hear Cory say "Good job Spencer keep up the good work." And I look over at Sam who is working two seats over from me and she is talking to Jordan and she says, "Yeah the one in the pink sweatshirt is Spencer." haha So apparently Jordan was monitoring my calls and he saw a boy's name and heard a girl's voice and he thought I was signed in under someone else employee number. :)
Day 3:
(this was today)
Today I was on a survey with a very nice lady with a southern accent and in the middle of me asking a questions she blurts out, "Umm excuse me ma'am! Excuse me but I have a question... are you a Christian!?" and while holding back laughs I say, "I'm sorry ma'am but I'm not allowed to answer that because it may cause some bias in the way you answer the rest of the questions..." and then she replies, " OH! okay!" we continue the survey and we finish it. I thank her for taking the survey and for her time and she says, " Oh you are very welcome! And ma'am if you are not a Christian I sure hope one day you will be!?" haha I was laughing so hard that it was completely silent and I was able to squeeze out a " Thank you and I hope you have a great day!"
Haha Oh how I love people!!
People rock. I like them. You rock. You have a job. I like you. I think the first lady has narcolepsy, the second people have finally met the celebrity (the famous spencer) and the third person is a on a Christian ministry. Good stuff. Love the stories. Hhahaah keep up the good work Budge!
