I got a job.

at Cingulair Wireless as a Customer Service Representative. It pays $10.03 an hour which is good for me, but I supposedly get health insurance for pretty cheap the first of the month after I work for them 30 days, which would be approximately April 1st. Scott works for himself, and we all have health issues, so getting health insurance is pretty ( Read more... )

Congrats! :)

OTOH, this reminds me how much jobs around here suck. :p I'd kill for $10/hr with benefits right now. :/

So are you like a phone monkey, or a sales person?

Glad you found something that works for you :)

I'm not sure what phone monkey means! but not a sales person. :)

Phone monkey means you're one of the people who get to answer calls from irate/confused/angry customers and sort out their bills for them.

Congrats on the job. Health insurance is a good thing.

Incidentally, university gigs are awesome. If you're near a university, try getting on their payroll as office support staff. They'll offer better health care options (I hope), plus better vacation time and retirement plan. You might be taking a small pay cut, but you'll also get more job security. It's low-risk and easy as heck. If you're just in it for the health benefits, I think it's the way to go.
