I quit my job at Convergys at the beginning of March. I decided that I wouldn't look for a job until after our spring break trip to St. George. I had enough in savings so I was sure I could make it a month without any income.
Well, I ended up staying unemployed for two and a half months but then a job found me! I was sleeping and some people called me to offer me a job at UPS. UPS does not hire anyone directly, they use staffing agencies and then after a few months they offer jobs to the employees who they want.
I just finished my first week of training and I love it. It's full time, which is different for me, but I'm really enjoying my time there. We've had time to listen to agents out on the floor and I'm confident that I will be working for UPS directly soon.
We take tests at the end of everyday to make sure we're retaining information. They give us between 30 and 60 minutes to take these tests. I have finished every test in under five minutes and either got 100% or only missed one. In other words, I rock.
I will update my blog more and let you know how the job is going. Also, another post is already scheduled for tomorrow!

Yeah! I found you!
I now type this with all the love in the world: Bonehead.
I feel your pain. I once upon a time worked at Convergys. I also hated it. I also quit. And it also took me what felt like forever to find another job. But I'm glad you like what you're doing now. Is it another call center?
