Why Customer Service Jobs are so Stressful... 

And that is what breaks the human mind, companies should care about their reps by banning/removing these individuals. But all the big heads care about is money.

@@BALAAABOYYYY222couldn’t say it better

I felt the same way with h&m! That was a big mistake on my pert lol!

Right! I'm like what? No way. I'm not going to be kind no matter what if people are rude to me. I'm not going to be kind

I get you! 10 years have passed and the mere thought of going back to that soul crushing tech support call center job makes me ILL.

I hope you find your way out

Maybe you can work in cleaning, manufacturing, warehouse, dishwashing? It might be easier for you.

same here i quit from the first day of job and i really regret this decision but now im searching again for an opportunity because i need to work but at the same time im feeling depressed idk what to do with my life again

I felt this same exact way when I worked at h&m! I'm not a people person so idk why I gave myself hell. The only reason why I even did that job was because of the discounts at the mall here in Seattle! It was a seasonal job but it felt like hell and I unfortunately didn't do that good of a job lol!

You really get to see all sides of people. Usually otherwise I don't see many people during my days and often I choose who I see. Don't have that liberty at work .

I know, right? I had 3 retail jobs and with the exception of one that was a temporary bookstore job, they were hell!

Oh yeah !

I know a karen customer by listening to their voice 😂 still working on walgreen customer service thank god its not that toxic compared to my previous accounts, but still stressful

I swear. People are trash 😂 you're basically being paid to be a human punching bag for people that hate their lives.

I totally agree. It's like they think we are deliberately trying to ruin their day

@@BrianMcCormack-rb8sqAnd they fucking ruin my day

I’ve experienced that 2 weeks ago. I hate it and I didn’t regret informing my resignation earlier. 18 days left for working here

@@Afternoon998 days for me.

@@LeahMT. thank you!

Thank You

I worked customer service for a company that got fined by the DOJ for scummy price fixing practices. Ofc we are not given any tools to help people. Only scam them. If you help them, you're fired, if you don't help, then you're fired. You're just a punching bag to prevent any concerns from reaching those subhumans up there in management.

I'm looking into computer programming but tbh am really not a computer type. It's tempting though....

Same

​@@BrianMcCormack-rb8sqThat’s what I'm working toward. Currently in a product customer support role but am far over the daily external/customer success team (non technical) interactions.

I just got hired for a customer service job and I work from home too. I’m on week 2 of training and I already dread logging on.

Can you tell me why it’s hard for you to get out?

Right. Been dealing with this for over 6.5 years. I know exactly why everyone is divorced. Nobody listens. Life is alllllllllll about them

🤣😂😂😂 I haven’t heard those angels sing for over 6.5 years.

Exactly!

TRUE

spot on bruh

SAMEE lol! Also stressful because I am enrolled full-time in school and the way I’m scheduled is just insane. It’s like I don’t have a work-life balance.

The sad thing is that I was not, Ever since working at a call center for 6 years. I’m losing my fucking patience with everyone. My mental health is tanking and I’m taking out my anger on my loved ones. Because I have to be kind to those that shit and yell at you. I’ve never wanted to strangle people more than anything in my life than now. Especially when I hear an entitled or ignorant fuck.

I feel it! I'm introverted and socially awkward. I try and be friendly to anyone but I just can't with rude and disrespectful people!

I'm so glad I work at a better job and not a retail job! Lol!

I love people. I just don't love not being able to cuss them out and check them.

Shawnti that's a really stupid statement.

@@kawaiicoded touchdown!! lol

I love people as well I just don’t like being disrespected by everybody plus customer service is like one of the lowest paying jobs to most customer service jobs are minimum wage and not only that the most customer service jobs your chances of being disrespected go up 6 x more than a job you don’t have to service people It has nothing to do with what you do or don’t like what it has to do with is choices why choose something that’s going to pay you so little and cause you so much stress when you can go get something that will cause you less stress no stress or even pay you better it’s choices It don’t matter what you like it matters what you choose to do and why choose that if you don’t have to

Also Like he said If it was a properly ran business nobody there would be stressed or atleast the amount of stressed people will go down Also you in 2022 right now meaning no one really likes people look at the way people have got Bro I literally went to sonic yesterday and the manager was screaming at this guy for calling his 17-year-old employee a whore because she messed up his burger this girl was literally in tears I don’t think it’s about whether or not people like people Because you’re still gonna be disrespected doing customer service at some point like badly You become a drone like a robot and deal with it or find something different like I said before choices not likes

Filipinos, most Indians etc.

Leave that job immediately
