Got a coworker who just walks out of work for 30 minutes, not a break or anything, leave his phone on and getting calls.  I work in a call center.  He comes back 30 mins later logs out and heads to lunch.  Will also just leave his headset down and watch TV where me and him are only one here.

Well today some others seen it happen.  Aslo on Saturday someone else seen him asleep on the phone and clock.

Im tired of it, going to see the bossman and narc him out tomorrow.

If your boss was doing his job he'd know what was going on.


Sometimes the supervision needs people to keep them informed.

hum....

you're system must not have a callog.. or whoever is reviewing it isn't paying any attention at all to the statistics..

big issue... how long per call, how many calls closed within x amount of time.. how many calls taken in x period of time...

whole industry around call center call analysis...

He works in a CALL CENTER!  Every time people on your team fuck up and shirk calls guess what? YOU GET MORE OF THEM TO DEAL WITH (and you get pissed off people who hold for excessive times).

I helped setup call centers and worked in them.  I've had cow-workers fuck off and been slammed with dealing with pissed off customers.

A good supervisor would be able to spot this shit a mile off, if they're bothering to pay attention to their system reports.

Ever call in wait 5 mins and get a dead line or hung up on 3 times, know how pissed you are because of that?  This behavior is what causes that

Good, lazy co-workers hurt those that have to pick up their slack, especially in your line of work.  Sounds like his problem is beyond the "talking to him" phase.  If you can, document specific instances with date and time before hand.

About four years ago, I managed a tech support call center.  Yes, the ACD software logged lots of info about calls, but I had to look at that data, and dump it into a spreadsheet to make pretty charts for upper management.  If I dozed through my responsibilities, then one tech could get away with murder and dump all of their work on everyone else.

If I worked in a call center where people could get away with crap like that, I'd be looking for a new job... either management doesn't care, or they're incompetent and are going to make up for it with a vengeance by putting everyone under a microscope.

i was in a similar situation with some jagoff who came in late every day and slept on the job. it was a direct result of this prick that caused me to injure my back because he was in the upstairs mezzane sleeping and nobody could find him and i had to perform his fucking duties....!  [i wonder if i could sue this asshat]

unfortunate for him i carry a camera every where i go:



i couldn't find the original, so the chop will suffice [this photo was all over the shop, bathrooms, hallway...]


when you have hard evidence that gets plastered ALL over the shop [or office] in the form of a photo something has to be done

so go shoot this bastard while he's fuckin' off and you'll be

Well, I guess you and I (and Taxman) disagree.  I don't mind doing my job, but I'll be damned if I'll sit back and pick up the slack from goldbricking cow-workers and simply smile, bend over and take it up the ass.  That's called "being a doormat" and once people figure out you're one, you usually end up getting tons of crap shoveled your way.  None of it is part of your job description, you usually don't receive any credit, promotions or additional pay for it and if you decide enough is enough and stop playing the doormat, you end up being the bad guy.

Fuck that.  BTDT.  Never again.  All being a doormat does is allow companies to screw you and your cow-workers to get a free ride at your expense.
