Fuck this shit!

OK so a while back I had to leave my job which was a management position in the field I want to spend the rest of my life in. I loved the job but there were some problems with the bosses and then they tried to screw me over with a noncompete agreement.

I wasn't sure where I wanted to take my life so I took a job that sounded interesting. I didn't realize at first that it was in a call center and even when I did I didn't realize how horrible of a job that is. I sit there all day dreading the phone ringing so I can talk to customers.

Meanwhile I have people around me that don't have my education or work experience criticizing me for my ability to talk on the phone (Yes I know I'm coming off like a snob, but trust me they are condescending pricks too (and at least I'm being arrogant about my education and management experience at a real job whereas they are being arrogant about their CALL CENTER skills)).

OK so most of them aren't pricks (some are) and are just doing there job and trying to help me, but can't they see in my eyes that I have already checked out? I might care to try to do a better job if the job wasn't so incredibly crappy.

BTW, I'm working nights and weekends, so it's not like I can say, "Oh this job sucks, but at least I'll be going out tonight!" No, it's just, "This job sucks."

I am very close to getting back to my old field (only working for myself this time), which I now realize is what I want to do with my life. Here's hoping that works out soon.

I wasn't a religious person when I started working here, but I guess there are no atheists in the fox holes. If you pray to a higher power for help, please join hands and pray with me that I will get out of here with my sanity, and that I will be granted the strength and the wisdom to laugh at people (that are working in call center as a career) that talk down to me.
