everybody got their something
The End of the World I know it's old, but I had to do something to get the Magical Trevor song out of my head :)
- Want a Con Ed tatto? Just fall on one of their grates in NY.
- GM wins in Derrick Thomas wrongful death suit. Wow....anybody can sue over anything now a days eh? Hmmm...speeding, weaving, no seat belt, ice.....well thats not an accident, its Darwinism.
- AVP kicks everyones ass. Movie reviewers now looking for jobs as weather men where nobody expects them to ever be right.
- Man splases cop with puddle. Man gets's arrested. If your gonna stand in the street...perhaps it might be a good idea to not do it by a puddle...dumbass.
- cute, stupid little kitty thing. Here's a litte link for anyone reading this from Hazelwood, MO. Good luck to everyone out there, if it's any consolation the extra money saved by your jobs being phased out will allow some executive to buy a new gold plated enema bag.

I am sure a few former hacks still visit as well, but since Dennis had to shut down the forums, nobody knows

I certainly wasnt blaming you. This site has been up forever, and I am sure its a pain at times. Believe me, we have appreciated it for years. You have provided a good service.
I'll bet Ben still looks like Bobby Hill...

So Nick, how do you really feel? While I've never worked there, I had many friends and ex-coworkers that did. They had nothing good to say about that location.

Hey.Hey
I used to work for convergys tucson/sbc project.
Met some really awsome people there.
I left and moved to europe in may04 and a couple of months later heard they pulled the plug on tucson project.
I started working for Ameritech , then for a while Prodigy then again Sbc . and finaly Sbcyahoo dsl.
I enjoyed the begining we didnt have any flows any scripts. All was US based and everybody had that "fix the customer" approach . Last I rember was them telling us to give 110% for the company and screw the customer with ATH below 12min.
Working for convergys was a rewarding experience .
I started when I was 22 Got the inside looks on how Corporations work and left .
Greets to everybody form Tucson/SBC project
I cant say I didn't see it coming .

I first found out about this site working in Hazelwood. The convergys sbc-dsl project IS the midwest's IT sweatshop. I've never worked in a more degrading, we don't care, you are a number and defined by numbers environment. That was the most underpaid, oveworked, underrespected position I've ever had and I used to be a CNA that wiped asses for a living. I've moved on from Convergys and now work as IT staff in the financial sector. Based on this post I'm only assuming that they finally decided to pull the plug on Hazelwood and ship it all overseas just like all the other Mr. Burns of the world would do. I remember when I heard Craig was being sent to India to train people. I figured that was the beginning of the end for Hazelwood. To all of my ex-coworkers there and the many who have walked through the revolving door since I left, good Luck. I know it sucks to lose your job only to know that someone with a 17 syllable name who identifies himself as bob now does your job by reading a flow chart for 1/8 the pay. You will find better. You deserve more respect than that place would ever give, and you deserve more than $9 an hour.
