Hello, readers.
As I type I am at my day job, a humble phone answering person. Now while that may sound ordinary, I can say it is in the TV industry.
Its actually a unique place to work - a fact I'm valiantly bearing in mind as I deal with some difficult callers! It's the place that approves & classifies all TV ads before they can go to air.
For ages I've at least wanted to get a start in the TV industry - the fact I've accompished that makes me happy.
Its just that some of these callers are getting under my skin....they make their demands that I chase stuff all round the office and I'm like F!*& OFF I don't have time you F&^#%^ers.
Aah. I've got that out of my system now. Look sorry about that, I'm just struggling with my own frustration.
My work is located in the Sydney suburb of Mosman, and I have to say that makes the trip here and back, and lunchtimes, very pleasant indeed. Its a beautiful ferry ride across Sydney Harbour. The fresh sea air and the natural surroundings leave me blissing out in the mornings and afternoons, while the well-cared for streets of the suburb and the beautiful houses create a wonderful spring-time ambience on my lunch break.
So its not all bad! Just have to work on that temper of mine....and not scare my poor co-workers.
Bye for now

Foot in the door! You're in a good place! I don't miss handling phone calls like that, I used to work in a call center taking orders. NIGHTMARE. There was one caller who had gone through all of us CS reps on the floor and made everyone cry. He got to me and I finally had to pass him off when he said something so unbelievable awful to me I just knew I'd explode if I didn't get rid of him. He said to me "I DEMAND to speak to the MAN in charge of YOU!" It was the only time in my life where I actually believed it was quite possible for steam to come billowing out of a persons ears. In this case, my ears.
Don't miss that job one bit.
