Well, how to begin?...Thank you very much for this.<br /><br />Well, how to begin? Um, I am not yet 25, I am a social science course graduate who ended up in the call center industry as well, and had his share of promotions.<br /><br />I resigned a month ago, knowing very well that it was one of the better decisions I have made in my life.<br /><br />I have nothing against people who've worked (or who are working, or who are planning to work) in a call center. But like you, I just don't see myself in it anymore. <br /><br />Yes, the lifestyle thing kept me going for the longest time, but I realized that it was something that I have <i>developed</i> along the way, and not something inherent in me. I can live, heck, I have lived under bare urban necessities.<br /><br />Sorry for the rambling. It's just fascinating to realize that I am not alone.<br /><br />Here's to us finding "the one", the job that would make us completely happy.<br /><br />Cheers!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16092825044082633184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477081438559630011.post-12764680067075983632009-11-05T23:12:31.691+11:002009-11-05T23:12:31.691+11:00i so feel for you ewik.. lucky you! you're out...i so feel for you ewik.. lucky you! you're out of the call center world..very exhausting but nevertheless rewarding..<br />Although call center pa rin ako, i just try to enjoy the people around me, since i'm much closer to home and family and the people here in this place are also very nice kind of people. <br />i too hopes that you would get the job that u truly deserve.

Then again, school is mostly theoretical; life itself is <i>praxis.</i><br /><br />I admire your courage in sacrificing material comforts for what you feel in your heart is a more real kind of happiness. But as you've discovered, we pay for the choices we make, whether they turn out to be right ones or wrong.<br />I hope your choice in this case turns out to be the right one for you. But in case it's not, you're not even 25, as the title of your post says. So make all your mistakes while you're young. Later in life, you'll be more fearful and take less risks, because the price of your choices will be steeper than they were in your youth.rudeboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11729829252617889028noreply@blogger.com
