leave a response

More memorable quotes from work. These gems make what I do worthwhile:

Q:Describe a situation wherein you were able to use your persuasion successfully to convince someone to see things your way?
A:Ummm… My brother… Bikos he is impotent.
Q:Excuse me? Your brother is impotent?!
A:Yes. He does not want to work.
Q:Ah… He does not want to stand up? To go to work?
A:Yes. He is so lazy.
Q:So what did you do to overcome his objections?
A:I quarrel him.. inside the room… man to man

*Easiest way to cure impotency

Q:How much do you know about the call center industry?
A:Hmmm… Around fifty percent I guess.
Q:Ok. Can you expound on that please.
A:Ah…. Only fifty percent…

*He knows only fifty percent of fifty percent… Not a bad ratio.

Q:What are your short term and long term goals?
A:For my short term, I have three kids, right?
Q:Ok… So whats your long term goals?
A:Well, eventually they will grow up and when they do I will tell them to apply here because its a good company.

*Introducing the Employee Making Machine

Q:What are your short term and long term goals?
A:For my short term its, “Don’t be afraid, only believe” and my long term goal is “Laughter may hide sadness. When happiness is gone, sorrow is always there”.
Q:These are your goals? Your CAREER goals?
A:YES!!!!!!
Q:These are your goals for your career?!
A:YES!!!!!! (louder this time with matching head bobbing motion)

*This one is a classic!!!!!!!

Q:How long do you see yourself working with us?
A:So long…. As long as I can imagine!

*Wooo-hoooo!!!!!!

Q:Who do you think are given a chance to work in a corporate environment?
A:Like in SM, if you are obese they will not hire you. Thats why there are no bad looking people there.
Q:So the reason we work here is we did not pass at SM?
A:Yes.

*I have to work in SM now!!!
