CONFUSED

I got admitted to E-Telecare, a call center in Eastwood, and they wanted me to attend this 5-day training to polish my confidence coz mmy lack of it affects how I speak. That'll start next Monday. But they also told me that there's no guarantee that after the training I'll be given the job. With the training comes exams and evaluations if I am really capable of the job.

Adrienne, a girl I met there who was also applying got the same training as me. But she wasn't too happy about it. She thinks it's rejection guised as a training. She thinks we ain't good enough for the company that's why we have to undergo this polishing. This got me thinking. I am not being too pessimist but I think she has a point. Now, she's having second thoughts of pursuing the application. She still wants to continue her studies. She only has six units left, and that's her thesis.

I persuaded her to at least give the training a shot and if she doesn't like it she could leave. I just hope I convinced her.

Now, I am thinking if I really want to pursue a call center career. A lot of my friends say that there's no growth in this career and stuff like that. Though it's good money, you'll sacrifice a lot. My night life especially, since the job is gonna be mostly in graveyard shift. And there ain't no fixed schedule either. The shifts are rotating and we even have to go work on holidays including Christmas.

Oh well, If ever I pass the training and not be terminated along the process, I'll have to stay with the company for six months or else I'll pay the bond which costs Php 30,000. Hayy... I am so confused right now.
