Great learning curve

My day would include a range of things to be done from answering the phone, problem solving when client are unhappy. Sometimes dealing with screaming clients and how to calm them down is the most challenging but exciting experience. Getting to know all or most of our clients and having a relationship with them is awesome and them talking to you when they need something as opposed to other people was always a bonus. I enjoy the most not having to wear formal clothes everyday i could come to work and be in jeans and takkies daily but it doesn't affect my professionalism nor my working ability. The open door policy with directors at my company is also awesome and also the fact that we are like a family rather than work mates.

Pros: I had no set breaks and could have a break at my own time even if it means it means not eating the whole day but getting the work done
Cons: wow dunno salary i guess and one or two co workers that annoys me the and tries their best to make me misrable

Excellent stepping stone

A day at work would consist of complaints and crying and smiling with tears in my eyes saying i am fine at times, not even making the person on the other side of the phone realize that i would love to just cry. Problem solving or trying to solve problems as best I can if i can't ask assistance and get back to the person. My relationship with co workers was excellent and we would often share our miserable day experiences even our happy day experience. When I started at the current company I only knew the basics of a PC today i know more than i thought i would ever care to know and its interesting because I love learning and experiencing new things. I love the open door policy and also the fact that I don't have to be dressed in heels or formal wear on a daily basis. I wear jeans and takkies daily and it doesn't affect my professionalism or work ability at all. I don't mind the formal or smart casual look also.

Pros: Learning everyday, and working with different people and mostly learning
Cons: Having to deal with clients or people that are just difficult people and doesn't want to understand.

Most challenging for me is to work with screaming clients that absolutely doesn't want to understand that everything doesn't always go as planned but can always be fixed.

Pros: Being able to wear jeans and takkies and that doesn't affect my professionalism. Open door policy
Cons: Having to field calls that no one else wants to field and taking pain for someone else's mistakes
