Yes, I was REALLY "jack of all trades" but only got the title and pay of customer service. I did all customer service, purchase & recieving.... worked 10-12 hour days will NO LUNCH..... it was CRAZY... I was the go to girl. I loved my job for the 1st couple of years but then we merged with another company, got a new owner,.... he did not know how to run a business... so he got into trouble money wise and then started letting everyone go.... he kept me, I took at many positions and got ZERO pay increase!! (*note: he is out of business now and lost his home over it) IDIOT!! I started the job I'm at now in July 1st 1999!
OMG practically the same thing happened to her! Things weren't so bad for her at first (it's an insurance company) and she didn't mind work, but the business all went to a new guy who had no clue how to run the company and switched the computer programs they were using, he let go a total of 350 people in just our city alone (so far!) and everyone is in fear for their jobs! And now my mom and the other 12 people who are left in the call center have to cover a bunch of other jobs on top of all those calls. So when the phone rings now at home, I'M the one that gets to answer it!
Peaches:
I feel your Mom's pain.... tell her I wish her the best.... everything happens for a reason...just think of all those skills she has for her resume now!!
