~Commission TOS*Commission Prices and Que*Commission Email: Sanocommissions@yahoo.com~ So yupyup, i officially have a job!
Working for a company called Manpower, as a Customer Service Rep for Sprint/Nextel cells, service and tech support.Starting pay is 10.50/hr, with raises at the 6 month, then every year anniversary, I'm pretty confidant in my ability to handle customers, as I've been working in the retail/sales field for most of my working career, plus I feel I've got a pretty nice advantage, having worked at Gamestop and having to deal with irate customers over the phone and such.
pretty excited actually... i go in tomorrow to take a tour of the facility, then start training on the 12th. training is gonna be fun though as i heard they make you learn a LOT in the small time training lasts, then kick you out on the floor XD
downside is my training is from 5:15 AM to 1:45 PM, so no more late nights for me XD gonna use this next week before training to get my body used to waking up at like 3-3:30 so that I'm not struggling to wake up that early when training start X.x
my social life won't need to change for the next few weeks at least, as that will be my work time till at least the last two weeks in October. might stay the same for those weeks or it might change, but either way, I'll know my schedule for the next 3 months the last weekend in October, as thats how the shift rotations work.. i think...
dress code is pretty easy going too, jeans and nice t-shirts, and tennis shoes... going to be asking if wearing my crocs will be okay as they gave us a dresscode for what we can and can't wear, but they didn't mention clogs or loafers in the do or the do not sections so i dunno if i can...if not, my tennis shoes are pretty comfy and if nothing else i can always get a pair of the croc sandels or work shoes once i start getting paid.
We get paid weekly apparently, which is bad for me seeing as I'm a big impulse spender XD I'm going to attempt to save up though cuz i found this bitchin' laptop for only 600 bucks..was super nice with a high grade radeon graphics with its own dedicated memory, a gorgeous quad-core... a guy who was shopping at the same time as i was told me he had it and it played WoW on Ultra getting 40-60 FPS in stormwind *drools* i want it really bad XD
It also had a great soundcard, so i could probably DJ with it and it not sound like crap...and if i spent as little as i could of my paychecks, i could afford it in a little less than a month :3
Gah XD i really shouldn't be spending my money before i even have it, but i do need a new computer, pretty badly. That's the main reason I'm so loath to stay with my mother instead of my grandmother(besides the main main reason of that I don't want to live with my mother again if I can avoid it. XD)) After the computer, I'm gonna do one of two things. Either going to work it out so my grandparents buy a car and I pay them back for it, or I save up for a few months and go get one myself. With the fact that I could be working from as early as 4 AM or to as late as 10 PM, It'd be best if I can provide my own transportation or find a carpool.
Eeee... is excited... I've been trying to find a job since late june/early july so i'm really happy that i was able to land one by September :3

it was kinda funny.. they kept asking me all sorts of questions in my interviews and i kept referenceing my time at Gamestop when answering..specially when they asked about dealing with irate customers... i remember plenty a person who called up yelling at US because their Xbox RROD'd >.>
