For years now I have tried to land myself a Monday thru Friday job working 9-6, or something as close to that as possible. The closest I had gotten to this was working for the $camatologists, which lasted but a week.
When I interviewed for the position at eHarmony, I was told that I would have to work one weekend day a week, and that the times available to work included 7am-4pm and 4pm-1am. These times both suck my ass. While I was training I was on the 4pm-1am schedule. When they try and sell you on this schedule, they say that you have your whole morning and afternoon to do stuff. Bullshit. You sleep and do nothing until you go to work, then after work nothing’s open and nobody is awake. The 7am schedule is okay, except for that whole waking up at 5:45 (that’s 4:45 if you ride your bike and take the train). I do like leaving work when the sun is still up.
I just found out, officially, that I will be working on the phones here at eHarmony. What does this mean? Well, seeing as how the phones are only available Monday thru Friday from 8am-6pm, that’s when I’ll be working. KICK ASS!
