New Job, Part 4: The Final Part

Hey there! Sorry I’ve been MIA.

I am so happy that this is the last story of the SHITTIEST job I have ever had (yes, even worse than when I worked in a restaurant).

Well, when I last posted my schedule was TBD and I wasn’t t sure if I could get Aug 25-28 off for a family wedding.

WELL…we get our schedules during the 3rd week of training. I am prepared to get up and walk away if the schedule is an overnight shift, as that was not at all explained to me during the interview/onboarding process. I get my schedule, and it is 6:30AM-3:00PM Mon, Tues, Weds, Fri and Sat. I get Thurs and Sun off each week. Tad early, but “hey it could be worse” I thought to myself. HA HA HA.

Then, on Week 4 of training, they show us how to see our schedules online and how to navigate the schedule website….AND THEN THE BOMB. We are told that we are REQUIRED to work “Mandatory Overtime” and said OT is 6-8 hours/week. I’ve had a lot of jobs…NONE of them have forced me to work OT, it has all been voluntary. On top of this BS, I also discover this call center is 24/7, 365 days a year. Yep, that means you have to work holidays! I mean, you can ask off.. but the scheduling staff have to approve it…so basically no. At this point I am sending out applications left and right.

Then the wedding….after nagging and nagging I FINALLY get Mon 8/28 off. But not Fri 8/25…because I do not have enough PTO hours. “Can I take an unpaid day off?” NOPE. If you don’t have PTO, you don’t get off. Also you only get 4 hours of PTO every paycheck, which is bi-weekly, AIN’T THAT NEAT? AFTER THE OFFER LETTER SAID WE GET 15 DAYS OF PTO? Then the week of I ask to use 2.5 hours left in my PTO balance to leave at 3PM on 8/25 since we have to drive 4 hours to another state. This gets approved…..then I’m told I will get half a point on my attendance record for “leaving your shift early with notice”. I asked about this on Mon 8/21. HOW…JUST HOW? At this point I’m like fuck it, give me a whole point or half a point. Whatever.

We go to the wedding, have fun and get a break from our dogs and then come home…..then my coworker texts me. Remember that Mandatory OT? 7 hours has been assigned to me on my day off, Sun 9/3. I am outraged, because no notification has been sent to me about this. I’m able to work out a deal with my new supervisor and switch it to Thurs 8/31…..but that’s where it went downhill.

For the whole month of September I have been working around 50 hours every week. I’m dealing with nonstop phone calls about people and fraud on their cards…usually because they’re Boomers and click on links on Facebook or in spam emails. I am pulling 10 hour shifts to meet the OT requirement and in order to keep my days off, well, my days off. I am a miserable cunt. I worked, made dinner, fed the dogs and went to bed and repeated it again the next day.

Well after applying nonstop during my shift, because my only motivation was to not get fired, and having a few interviews…I finally land a new job! I gave the current shithole company 24 hours notice and their response was “OMG WHY WHAT HAPPENED?” And I fucking called them out on their BS. They send daily emails about how to have a “great work-life balance” and told them that was nonexistent for our team, that the supervisors were horrible with communication and that I was physically and mentally exhausted. They asked what they could do to change my mind. I told them to change my schedule and stop the OT…but the client wouldn’t like this. I dick around on my last shift and clock out at 3:30pm on Sat 9/23. Me and my husband go out drinking and have a grand ole time.

Then…the shit show of returning my work equipment begins. I fill out the form my boss sends me for FedEx and find a local Dollar General that can handle pick ups. Perfect right? No, because FedEx sends me a QR code and not an actual shipping label. And the Dollar General cannot scan or print labels. I live in a small town, in a rural area. The closest FedEx store that can scan and print labels? TWO hours away from me….across the state boarder. Fuck no. I then email and text my supervisor and FINALLY the IT teams sends me a PDF of the actually shipping label for printing. I took it to the library, printed it and took it & the box to the dollar general and dropped it off. DONE.

The New NEW job is going to get it’s own post, because they don’t deserve to be in the same post as ShitHole Company.

I’m glad to be rid of this shitty job and am actually excited to start the new NEW job lol 😊

My manager let me know on Friday I got a promotion for the position I’d been aiming for since I started, I don’t start training until the middle of next month, but I’m pretty excited because I get a raise and I’ll be off the phones doing data entry work now which is where I wanted to be from the start.

Can Data Analytics Help Call Center Operations Effectively?

Summary: Data analytics helps call centers optimize operations, enhance customer experience, reduce cost, and improve agent performance. It gives information for better decision-making in this market. 

With the rise of big data analytics, call centers can change how they work and improve things for their customers. With the help of data analytics, this article looks at how to make call centers run more effectively. 

Modern Call Center Data Analytics 

Call centers produce large amounts of data daily, such as call lengths, resolution times, customer comments, and behavior trends. A whole lot of these data have been unused in the past. Call center services can now handle and analyze this data to gain valuable insights thanks to advances in data analytics.  

By using big data, call centers can make better choices, do a better job, and ensure their plans align with customers' wants. This method makes operations more efficient and helps provide better customer service, making call center solutions more valuable. 

Improving Customer Experience with Insights 

Customer happiness is still the most important thing for call centers. Data analytics lets call centers learn a lot about how customers behave, what they like, and what bothers them. By looking at old data, call centers can guess what customers need and make conversations more personal. 

For example, looking at past exchanges allows employees to analyze what the call is about, which allows them to prepare beforehand. This cuts down on call times and boosts the number of first-call resolutions, which is good for users. With analytics-powered personalization, everyday contacts with customers can become chances to build lasting relationships with them. 

Call Flow and Staffing Optimization 

Efficient staffing is essential for keeping call centers running smoothly. Data Analytics Services analyze call traffic trends to help predict busy times and ensure there are enough staff. 

Analytics can also find problems in the flow of calls that cause customers to wait longer and be less satisfied. Once they have this knowledge, managers can simplify processes, improve call routing, and use resources well. This ensures that call centers work well, even when there are a lot of calls. 

Using Data to Cut Costs 

Data analytics can help call centers cut their costs significantly. By looking at trends, call centers can find the root cause of recurring problems, reducing the number of times they have to talk to the same customer. 

Improved hiring and shorter wait times for answering calls also help cut costs. Analytics also helps find and eliminate inefficiencies, like too much empty time or resources not being used, ensuring the whole process is cost-effective. 

Empowering Agent Training and Performance 

Call center employees are the first line of people customers talk to, so how well and efficiently they do their jobs is very important. Data analytics looks at average call handling time, customer happiness scores, and sentiment analysis of conversations to get a complete picture of how healthy agents are doing. 

With these data, call centers can see where workers are doing well and where they need improvement. They can then make customized training plans to fill in the gaps in their skills and enhance their general performance. Giving workers feedback based on data makes them more productive and boosts mood and job satisfaction. 

Data Security and Regulation Compliance 

Call centers have many responsibilities when using "big data," especially regarding data protection and following the rules. Call centers must follow strict regulations like GDPR and CCPA when they deal with private customer information. 

Outsource Virtual Assistant Services can be a good way for businesses to improve data security while simplifying their operations. A virtual helper can help you keep private data safe, ensure you're following the rules, and speed up the process of doing things. It's common for these outsourced services to have security procedures built in to protect data and lower the risk of leaks. 

Overcoming Data Analytics Implementation Issues 

Call centers benefit from data analytics, but applying it isn't always straightforward. Data storage, processing, and analysis systems are expensive to develop. 

Also, the quality of the material is very important. Data that isn't full or correct can cause flawed analyses and bad choices. To ensure the security of their data, call centers need to prioritize data validation methods and buy quality control tools. 

Another important part is teaching staff how to understand and use data ideas correctly. Without the right training, data analytics will never reach its full potential. Call centers can handle these problems well if they take a planned approach and keep improving. 

Conclusion 

Call centers need data analytics to succeed in the digital era. With big data, call centers can save money, enhance customer service, and function more effectively. Call centers that use data analytics and plan for their challenges will have an edge over their competitors. This will turn exchanges with customers into valuable experiences that lead to long-term business success.
