Methinks the karma train just bit a coworker in the butt. Haha! (Is that mean of me?) So I had to go to training yesterday and today, and while I was out there, I went to see the call center. I saw this girl there, she works with me, and I thought she was in training and just visiting or something. But then I realized she was logged into the computer and had a headset on. So I asked her if she moved to the call center. Yes. She got a bit smart with me when I asked her how long she's been there (I know it hasn't been more than a few weeks) and the conversation ended quickly after that.

I was on my way to see my previous supervisor, and I asked her about it. She didn't say very much, but I have the idea the transfer was at least somewhat involuntary. I could be wrong though. But I do think this is karma coming back to get her. If you've been reading here for a while, you've seen me post about how people in the division just love to talk smack about the call center and they have absolutely no respect for the call center or the people that work there. This girl was one of them. And look at her now! She's one of them! I can't help but love it. I hope she's getting a serious attitude adjustment regarding the work the call center does and fast. Those people work hard, much harder than most of the people in any of the other divisions, and it shows in the promotions.

A huge majority of the promotions are people that are in call center or call center alumni. Some of this has to do with the fact that they've been sending all of the new hires to call center for several years, so everyone, with few exceptions, has to do their time there, but there are still plenty of people around who have never worked in call center and they are still not the ones getting promoted.

Be careful who you snub your nose at - you may become one of them someday. That karma train hurts.
