May be a good tip on how to be a good call agent would be nice!

I see lots of call agents that fail to persevere and easily give up. :happy0088:

That's true, cmo!

I've heard from some of my friends who used to work in call centers that it is just emotionally draining! I think that being in a call center takes so much in a person to persevere, but once they get the hang of it, they really enjoy. :music-smiley-7524:

Tips will be very well-appreciated, financialplanner. :yey:

You know what? All jobs are like that. Unless you have a passion for it or you really love what you are doing. Well, for me am not fond about being an employee. You know why? Because you just mind other's business and those owners get richer while you are at their employ and you? You just earn a meager minimum-wage salary. Besides there's no such thing as stable jobs. However, being a call center agent gives you some leverage for a headstart on your financial future. Why is that? Because most of the call center jobs available in the country pays a good salary and gives better benefits than regular jobs.
This means if you practice good financial planning, you don't need to work for someone else all your life. Usually you have HMO coverage so in case of sickness in the family, the money you could have spend for that, you can save. Maybe if this is your motivation that will help you stick to that until such time that you are able to establish your own business like what I'm doing now. I am slowly transitioning to building my own business while working. Hopefully soon, I'll be able to resign.

Yes, you are right that most jobs are emotionally draining; however, in my line of work, I don't have to deal with people who are irate nor do I need to call people to sell something, etc. My job is more physically draining and I have the passion that drives me to overcome that. (Thank goodness! :lol:)

It depends on how you define stable. For me, I worked in a school for almost 11 years and I think that was stable. Now, I've decided to move up the career ladder, so I'm with another school for three semesters and honestly, I am very happy. What's also interesting in this new school that I'm in is the number of people who has been working there almost all their career lives. Some of them are very happy and content as they look forward to retirement. I think the job has really been very stable for them, too.

It is true that you can earn better if you have your own business. I've met many young people who start their own business. For them, that's where the money is and I agree. Despite that, I still see myself more of an employee than an employer and I'm cool with that. When the opportunity comes fro me to be an employer, I'd be glad to be one. :yey:

That's good. What I mean by stable is that when you are at your retirement stage, you don't need to depend on someone else. Also, if you will still be living decently even if you don't have a job to pay you. Do you have a retirement plan at your work? if you don't have one yet you can get one on your own to provide for your retirement years.
By the way, you can earn only as long are you are able but once you are struck with illness or disability no matter how stable your job is, I don't think that they will still employ you. You need to have some sort of income protection while you are still earning.

Okay, now I see what you're driving at. You have a pretty good point there. Retirement pay is very important and investments are, too. :happy0088:

:thankyou: very much for that piece of advice, financialplanner!
