My Fake American Accent (The Call Center Thread)
« on: May 14, 2010, 10:42:52 AM »


"Hi, this is Chris. Tell me how I can put a smile on your face today."

Akalain mo na wala pang thread ang mga taga-sagot ng telepono sa PG4M? Samantalang andami natin ditong nagtatrabaho sa BPO industry. Kaya this is it: ang tambayan ng mga call boys (at call girls, if that's your thing).

Refresh ko lang yung kausap kong naka-hold.

"Thank you for calling. Have a nice day!"

eventhough sinasabi nila yan opportunity since mas madaming nahihired na TSR -- I still prefer as a floorwalker at least I'm helping newbies... hayyzz... kahit ilan beses ako nagsabi ng "NO".. well no choice.. right now I'm here na sa training nung account.. not that techie pa naman ako para maging TSR weee..
Tech account ako for almost 6 years na.

Ang technique lang naman sa tech support ay alamin mo muna kung ano talaga yung problema ng kausap mo. Hindi yung kung yung sa tingin ng kausap mo na problema nya. Pag alam mo nang naiintindihan mo kung anong nangyayari sa customer, either ibigay mo ang reso o magtanong ka kung hindi mo alam ang reso.

Andami kasing agents inuunahan agad ng tanong sa ibang tao o kaya nagbibigay na ng reso, hindi pa naman nila alam kung ano talaga yung cause ng technical issue. Ayun, nagkakamali tuloy.

Kung sanay ka mag-isip logically nung nasa customer service ka pa, madadalian ka lang mag-adjust sa tech support.

Matagal na akong against sa EOP bilang paraan para ma-improve ang English-speaking skills ng mga BPO employees, lalo na kung wala namang corrective training na kasama yung EOP.

Kabaliktaran nga ang nangyayari: kung walang corrective training, lalong nare-reinforce yung mga grammar lapses ng mga agents na kalaunan nagiging habits na.

Gusto ng management ang EOP kasi parang may ginagawa sila para sa improvement ng agents. Obvious kasi pag naririnig mong Inggles ang usapan ng mga tao. Pero pakinggan mong mabuti: puro fractured sentences, faulty grammar, at incorrect pronunciation ang maririnig mo.

Nabubwisit ako sa mga call center agents na napapasikat ng English nila in public, pero mali-mali naman mag-Inggles. Major pet peeve. Kung ako QA analyst nila, ipapabalik ko sila sa language training.

Nawawala inhibitions eh. Siguro mas nasasanay na kasi akong sa inggles kaya parang first language ko na sya. Pero hindi rin.

Hahaha. Inuman tayo, Wolf.

Usually libre ako ng weekends, except sa unang weekend ng June. (House party nung friend ko sa June 5 - pramis ko gagawa ako ng cocktails for them; tapos Baguio ako sa June 6.)

Sama natin si Naivete. Mas okay kung sa bahay na lang tayo. May tira pa kong creme de menthe at white rum galing dun sa inuman namin nitong weekend (dapat may tira pang blue curacao kaso naunang ni-nenok nung isang officemate ko, haha), pwede tayong gumawa ng fake mojitos.

Anyone else who wants to join us?
