My first week has been full of good stuff. Learnt lots, gained lots of experience. Found out huge amounts and raised more incidents than I care to think about. Had some great successes (someone was having problems with crossed lines, incident came back today as fixed - a cabling problem - it's great to be part of the solution to these things), and a couple of failures.

I'm enjoying it lots - despite the number of cust service calls we're taking. And what makes it hard is that I am used to taking "high value" calls, the cream of the crop, the big spenders. Now I'm back to scummy consumer and I had forgotten what a difference it makes. Really.

The HV customers tend to be forgiving, tend to understand. The mid-range customers are rude, arrogant, and just plain annoying. You can't give them anything and they refuse to accept it when you say this.

Oh, and PAYG registrations... *grr* I'd forgotten how much I hate them.

But yes. Fun.

No, TDMS take overflow calls if normal cust serv are busy, but the overflow calls we take are "consumer" rather than "High Value", which I am used to...

*However* :)

This has now all changed and we take it in turns - a week at a time - to take Cust Serv overflow. This is in part annoying and in part great. Means that for 3 weeks a month we are doing techie geeky stuff, but for one week of the month we're doing bog standard cust service. Not what we're there for really but hey...
