New Job

You guys, I’m a debt collector. I have been for over a week.

That’s right, I am currently doing exactly what I went to school not to do. The whole reason for studying liberal arts in college was to avoid cubicles and memos and shitty PCs with internet-blocking firewalls.

It’s cool because it’s decent pay to balance out the high turnover of the job. It’s not cool because I spend roughly 9 hours a day being an asshole to poor people. I’m the jerk who wakes you up in the morning and who calls you again at dinner.

Every day, I call people who haven’t made payments on their major credit cards and try and get them to pay. If you can believe it, calling people who don’t have any money and trying and get money from them during a recession is not the most pleasurable experience.

In conclusion, it’s a super great job and I highly recommend it!!!
