I got the job at Connect North America! It doesn't pay $10.50 an hour, that is Accenture call centre. It pays $9.55 after a month on probation. I reapplied at Accenture and I'm going to go to my interview on friday at Lakeview Inns and Suites. The probation lasts a month and I'm not making anything near $9.55. I must say, putting $9.55 on the advertisement for the job is quite decieving. I also will work 11am-7pm every other Saturday. They will give me part time hours during the school year, so that's something I guess. However, after the months probation, if you haven't met your sales quota, attendance, and positve attitude then your on probation for another 2 weeks. I don't know how much I'm going to like doing outbound calls....people can be rude when they are the ones calling you, I can only imagine how rude they can be when your calling them. I'll go tomorrow and see if it's something that I want to do. A guy called me from Intermax water group while I was on the other line with Jackie to ask me if I was still interested in working for them. This would have been based on reservations for water testing (work from home) but your pay would be based on # of reservations only. I got an email from positive health living to be a promotor for two days(june 9&10), but I don't know how much it pays or what the hours are. I'll see if I can do that, work and go to my interview on Friday. I'll be pushing it, but if I can...I will. It is very sunny up here today! Very nice indeed! I think I'll have chicken tonight for supper. hmmmm......chicken and what?.......I'll figure it out. Oh...I'd like to send a thanks out to Sue for the Stiches gift certificate, I got a nice pair of beige dress pants with it the other day. I'm going to go make a coffee....write later...:)

Break a leg, as they say. :) Outbound can be difficult. Do you know if you'll be calling existing customers? That makes it a little easier...
We are calling existing customers as it turns out. I'm working for Verizon. It is a branch of Aliant. We also get a bonus after 200 hours equal the $9.55 an hour we would have made.
