Now, I know
you thought already about quitting. We all had to consider this course of
action. Some of us are dreaming about it every Friday or any other day in the
week. It is certainly a favourite talking point when one’s feeling low and
unhappy or unfulfilled. But at the end, one look at your account would easily
persuade you everything’s under control. Well, perhaps you are not the one controlling
it but look around. Everyone’s the same. You have to do something in your life,
you have to live, don’t you? So why risking it all because of slight chance you
could do better with something else than what you’ve got right now?
And there
are more ways of escape the day-to-day dread of not having enough. At least
partly. You can get more involved. If you are not noticed for your talents (or
if you have none), perhaps someone might lose a word or two for you. It is a
form of escape, albeit a tricky one. You see, after this point, your life won’t
revolve around your needs only, but you will be forced to see the bigger
picture, the bigger needs. There will be different promises, and you will be
required to make some yourself. Inspire, lure, celebrate what others around you
perceive as success. If before you thought you could affect whether you are
getting enough, now you would have to rely on others as well. Without their
help, there’ll never… But that is another fake promise.
So why
leaving? Yes, this might not be the healthiest thing under the sun, but
everything’s got a price. And pay you shall until you lose your ability to do
so. What then? Better to focus on now. But rest assured, there’ll be others
like you when you are no more. For as long as there is offer, the demand
persists. If you stick around long enough, you could notice slight changes in the
formula, but the game stays the same. You either got it or you don’t. Doesn’t
matter if you stay in this call centre or move to elsewhere. You have to do
something in your life and that is hard to do without the means. Think about
it. After your shift though, there are calls in the queue and the average speed
of answer is getting dangerously close to what we in management consider a
failed goal. Now go and don’t forget, we are making our customers’ day brighter
and more successful.
