Shots Fired at MOA | #Scary

Image
I  have blogged about the same topic before. You know, I never thought I would experience this first hand. And I wouldn't have wished because that shit is scary as eff!  Okay so this is what happened. We were done eating and generally done with the stuff that we were really supposed to do there, right? We decided to stop by Timezone to sort of wrap up all the activities and to sing our hearts away. But then all the KTV rooms were occupied that time so we decided to try their dance revolution thing first. Someone was dancing when we came so we waited. After a while, people were running towards our direction. And I was like, what's up? Then we sort of ignored that and then more people came in running. Then I asked someone from that running crowd and she said that there are people shooting each other outside. And I was like, what the actual hell?  I actually thought that there was just something that sparked or something. But you kno...

More Community.

These are just pictures from our latest community trip which I've learned a lot from. Like, not directly. But you know, sometimes, we have to really reflect and see things differently for us to actually learn. It's not always like in the uni or school or any learning institutes you know. We learn from our own experiences too. Unlike before, this community trip is actually sponsored and so we were able to rent buses and all that for the trip. If you can remember, we actually just rented a jeepney on our first field work. Another picture before actually setting off. This is how the community looks like.

For some reason, we were really happy LOL. Say hi to my partner. A picture of me inside the maze like path that our preceptor was talking about prior to the deployment. It...

Call Center experience. Not so good.

Call center is an in demand job in the Philippines. It is hard at first but you will get used to it the next day. That fast! Who will not be able to learn that fast when you will make a hundred or more calls a day right? You'll do good. I have been there only for a month but it gave me the experience of a lifetime. HEAVY! I met people who are nice,  funny and friendly along the way. I met great trainers, team leaders and supervisors who are always there to check what is happening and sometimes the only motivation I have to continue calling. My friends would know why. Hahaha My company is somehow great in a sense that we do not do hard selling. Only 3 rebuttals and if the client doesn’t agree with that, we will hang up and dispose the call. Hard to explain but yeah that is how it goes. Sometimes I do not stick with 3 though. Sorry. I am an outbound caller therefore I got to have something that will make the client stay on the line without them thinking that I am gonn...
