Re: So I got a job, but I'm meh about it.

That does suck. I despise having to answer the phones, even if it's just to direct calls! Unfortunately, management wasn't the best at my last job, and every department was on standby in the event our receptionist and back-up receptionist were out of the office. What sucked ass was that the "schedule" was based on week and not departments' turn, so every time these people were out of office, IT WAS ALWAYS OUR DEPARTMENT'S TURN. And it would always end up being me or the other girl in our department.

It wouldn't be so bad except it's not exactly a basket of rainbows handling the front desk phone at a mental health facility. I know it's just directing calls, and I should be glad I wasn't in the call center, but when you're normally a "behind the scenes" employee and then you have to be in a position where you're dealing directly with current/potential clients, and you're not trained to deal with the 1% who are either irate or a sobbing mess (even though the other 99% are fine), it can be stressful as hell.

Sorry, don't mean to make this a post about me. I think my point is I can relate to being in a position that has nothing to do with what you were trained to do.
