My company is an independent "account" and renting space to another company under the same business.
Confusing?
Its like this.
There are many foreigners putting up businesses here in RP. Well, labor cost isn't too expensive and with good trainings, workshops and exposure we are now one of the few countries who offers good quality service in terms of online customer service.
I used to work for "A" company but since after a few months work, they say that they'll not regularized any employees anymore. WHOAAAT
So, I moved to account "B". Company "A" has many accounts under their wings. They offer office space with internet and phone connection and people to these accounts. But there are some independent accounts as well. Meaning, these accounts only need enough space in lesser price with Internet and telephone connection. They have their own computers, people that they pay and materials already. And account "B" is one of them.
They move in two Decembers ago and before that December ends, owner "A" asked me to report to manager "B" and receive trainings from them. I was their first "rented" employee. I started training and making calls January next year.
We were only hmm I think more or less 12 in the morning. Everything was fine. I go to work at 4:30AM and worked for account "B" until 12:30PM then ran to company "A"'s own account and worked their until 6PM.
I got really really tired with the situation and because company A's can't handle people properly, their rules keep on changing, their salary is always late [they even borrowed my 1st salary to account B] and their account left me so exhausted I decided to resign. I told manager "B" of my decision because in them, resignees should informed managers 4weeks prior to their departure and 2 weeks for company A.
Manager "B" talked to me about this and he offered me to work for them full time. The conversation was good and we let manager/s "A" to deal with it after less than 2 weeks. To secure my transfer, manager "B" talked to company "B"'s owner and asked for company "A"s owner's permission. Company "A" was so eager to throw me to account "B" as if I'm just an itchy flake on their shoulder.
They were so eager to throw me. They didn't let me finish my 2 weeks. I still have a few days [3 working days to be exact] and I lose at least 5-7K. It's just good that I felt so relieved [of stress] and didn't contest. Since I already worked for 6months to company B, manager B offered to regularized me once I moved :) and I'll get benefits like a regular employee does.
Maybe, I did well and after a few more months, I was offered with account B a new shift. Since then, I've been earning double hahaha But the sad truth is, I didn't save enough. I'm single and free with money in my wallet. You'll see me wasting my precious money to buy what I want but not really needed. Then low and behold, few months ago, I decided to make my hard-earned money to work. So I bought my first condo which after 2 years will be an asset :)
After Christmas, December: company A talked to me next day: account B manager talked to me
After New Year, January: got my new station, taking calls
After 6 months, July: decided to resign [I've been working with them since October last year], talked to manager B
Same month: Manager B kept asking me about letting company A about my decision
Last week of the same month: company A gave me a go
After 3 months, Sept: manager B offered me another shift including Sally and Mhinnie, convincing them to let their accounts at company A go!
Few days after, same month: I joined Sally as double shifter
After 1 week, same month: Sally didn't make it and let go. Mhinnie took her account.
February this year: Daisy joined the club
Few more months: Audrey gave it a shot
April 2010: Sally came back after mhinnie and I few days of pestering manager B
Few weeks ago: Cecille started her new life taking Janice's old account
* I'll make sure of the dates on Monday. I'll ask these people for the exact dates.
I have no worries about it until, few days when people around me started disappearing. Its like walking on
thin ice, that my break and I might fall to a very cold and dark financial bankruptcy.
June 09/10th: Daisy went home early
June 14/15th: Jiya [ROK] was terminated
June 16/17th: Audrey's last day on AM shift
June 18th : Kris [AM], Randy [PM] early resignation, Marie [PM] supposedly maternity leave now resign, Sally and Mhinnie [double shifters] PM shifts were cancelled.
Again, I'm still holding my ground and buying as much time as possible.
Cross fingers and please wish me luck.
I need lots of it.
