but prefer office work/clerical. F/T or P/T with F/T hours. I need to find something quick. It has to pay $10+/hr after taxes in order for me to be able to pay my bills. I have 2+ years of Customer Service and Retail experience. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I wish to find something Monday through Friday but and willing to work weekends if necessary, first or mid shift is ok. No nights or overnight please.

I know I may be asking for a lot but it’s just the IDEAL position to be in but I am flexible.

Any ideas please post here or send me a PM.

I got fired from one job at a bank, but it was ruled by a judge as not a reason to get fired because I it was found that I did nothing wrong and I had never been in any trouble, never was late, never no called no showed or any of that stuff. I always minded my business and passed all tests and met all quality requirements. I have been on unemployment for far too long and I don’t think that I will get another extension. I have applied at so many places with no calls. I think me getting fired has got something to do with that, regardless of how it happened.

This.

I came off 10 years solid call center experience at Ingram Micro. When I was laid off I applied to Geico and never made it to an interview, they mailed me a letter saying they weren’t interested. They mailed me fairly promptly, but I was shocked at the declining to at least interview me. Over qualified I suppose, though my girl also recently applied there after being laid off and same thing…mailed a letter declining.

I too wonder what “qualifies” someone to work at a basic call center. Seems they leave alot of good workers un-interviewed. At least they mailed quickly on my 2 examples…I’d be pissed to not hear anything at all.

Short of sales with commission, I suspect $10 an hour _after_ taxes will be hard without any specific definable skill. Good luck though…in life it’s often about who you know. 🙂
