Hi CallCenterGuy! Perhaps violent crime is on the rise or you just see more of it because of your work schedule. I tried working as a CC Tech Support specialist but the night shift was just too much for me. And then I saw how companies demand so much from their employees for little money. It wasn’t for me. Even for P25K per month, I didn’t go for it. Even if the offer was from DELL. Well anyway, for all ye night warriors, be careful. Perhaps it would be good to buy a taser or pepper spray to give yourself a running start.

CallCenterGuy, and all the other people reading this specially callcenter agents, can you join our forum here:

I’ve worked in a contact center before, but not as an agent. Fortunately, I landed a job as a recruitment assistant. At first, I applied for an agent job, but I thought of all the hazards that come with it, so I opted for a day job at the contact center company.

So far, (here in Baguio and La Trinidad, Benguet) I haven’t experienced any of the aforementioned incidents. The closest would be hearing stories of snatching (dukot) in the wee hours of the morning along Session Road. What is happening to society?

I’ve been going on night duties as a nurse and fortunately, I’ve never been a victim of such incidents. But it’s really dangerous out there. You’re right about suggesting more law enforcers to roam at night, or that carpool thingy. I think Manila experiences such incidents ’cause it’s a melting point of a lot of Philippine ethnic groups that anonymity is very rampant. Since people don’t know each other well, they can just go on and rob, harass, or beat up anyone.

the gov’t should really do something about this…martial law? where only call center employees or other night shifts and drivers are allowed to raom around past midnight? something like that

“( Jonathan is so lucky, he works in a call center, he earns a good salary and the work is not that hard)”

-hay naku, hindi lang nila alam kung anu ang dinadanas ng napakaraming Jonathan para lang makuha ang malaking kita na sinasabi nila… *sigh*

It really makes us think if the hazard pay really compensates for the “hazards” that we face while commuting at night, right?
