well its boring. i dont actually work for tmobile. i work for a call center called center partners. they have contracts with like tmobile and quest and capital one and such. basically i take inbound sales calls from people who are too dumb to do online orders. 40-60 calls a day. its sucks but it pays ok i guess. 9.25 an hour plus commission which has been as high as 700 bucks on one paycheck so i can avg like 15 bucks an hour
thats not too bad...when we are busy i can make 17-20 an hr but during this time of year its more like 10 bucks...thus i have 2 jobs lol

I was able to score a sweet job at the local pool. I'm usually there swimming laps anyway, and then I got hooked. Pays pretty well too.

Basically dude! All the time, if I'm on break I can get paid to swim. FTW.
Really really good gig. Glad I got it.
nope not a lot of people think about their pools in the middle of the winter...plus you dont really need chemicals when the pool is almost frozen...thus another dead day for me

A pool store? Yeah, I guess you wouldn't be too busy this time of year, heh. 'Cept for the big indoor pools whom order bulk which you probably don't even touch.
I like working at the pool 'cause it's always super warm inside. :)
