A lot of CATCHING UP: weighing what’s good and what's left on the spinning wheel of work

We need to have a lot of catching up to do here.

Yes, I have been silent on my personal notes lately because it took me a lot of thinking and seizing up to do.

First catching up, I haven’t blogged that I and my husband met a vehicular accident On September that got me impulsively leaving the good and “career-giving/future-looks-so-bright job at the Shaw call center, right? Well now you know.

I left Shaw because they told me to go half day even if I had multiple hemorrhages and that my husband was scheduled for the plate surgery in his arms. That’s how they challenged me .And add the funny story they spread that it was just a public bus that bumped up slightly and or that’s why my husband had broken and radial nerve palsy because I was too heavy for him. How insensitive! Or shall I say how unprofessional they can be!

But the one good thing remaining and what I was really after and am still thankful for was that we were able to use the HMO Maxicare Gold Health card during the emergency room procedure (which I declined charging from after some more treatment so that MGE cab company will pay the rest in cash!)

After I left the “career-giving/future-looks-so-bright” call center, I “re applied” to my “5 minute away from home” pioneer call center and they took me in as a “re hire”

Re hire meaning nothing, nada, nil, back to zero-no credits or continuum on the years of tenure what so ever, no number of years and services rendered, no chance for promotions not until you pass the 6-9 months probationary period AGAIN! New i.d., new access card but old headset and LOWER RATE!-talk about saying yes to being used up!

The only good thing left: you get to retain your employee number, employee reputation and co employees-some are now on the higher level than you are.

I guess that’s what you call “missed opportunities for impulsively leaving! Or better yet KARMA! Sobbing….

But then again the wheel keeps on turning and this time I resigned and left my “5 minute away from home” pioneer call center because in time of need it’s only an Intellicare healthcard that I only have and again, none yet for my children.

*This healthcard is 100% subsidized by the “career-giving/future-looks-so-bright” call center and 3 more cards for your family members
