I hear Windemere is going to be really nice on the 15th...you should go there, get out and enjoy that sunshine! Don't let yourself be *cooped* up inside on your day off! :)

That's an appaling joke, hang your head in shame!

That and Windmere is about 200 miles from me. I've got some things to be doing. Might go to the gym (Yeah, right :P) and of course there's my girlfriend who will want saving from her father's wrath :P

Welcome to Rena.

Yeah, welcome to Little-Rena. Don't get passing me now, ya hear!

No that's what you'd call a useless review.

Actually, I take calls from people regarding a late night game show, that they'll never win. It's amazing really, how people spend like 3,000 dollars in just a couple months on making those calls and SMS messages, and get freaked out to win 50 bucks.

My main occupation would be to document complaints, and explain to slow people the rules of the game.

Sounds quite fun, until you've dealt with enough idiots to make you want to eat your phone.

I'm also thinking of getting a job for a month or two in a local call center. They pay rather well, and I think I'd be pretty much dealing with complaints from customers of whatever company. Money's money.

Thankfully, the people there have a good sense of humor. You may have your calls recorded, but no one's stopping you from giving the "fap" sign to your co workers when you have an annoying one on your hands.

I was offered an interview for a job at a call centre once, but I turned that opertunity down, I'm not very good on phones, lol. Although one thing I was told about it is that they give bonuses for selling whatever you are selling and such, so I guess it's good pay for those who can do it.

Good luck with that.

Heh, that's cool.

I spoke to a friend who also wants a night job, and we're going to the place to give in our CV's on Monday, so we'll see what happens. I figure I might as well do a night shift, seeing as I'm up anyway.

I think (though not entirely sure) that mostly it's dealing with / recording complaints and shit like that, rather than telephone sales. I wouldn't particularly like to be a telephone salesman, because whenever I get a call from one, I get someone irritated with their unnecessary persistence, even though it's obviously part of their job.

Good luck with that.

Heh, thanks dude :)

Remember a while back a few of us were trying to put together an EGB website? I know it's since kinda moved to the back burner, but I made an ideas thread in our forums for it, so go check it out and have a say.

Hm, if I can think of anything too help out then I will be sure to post it in the thread that you made.

Yeah, I've been through much of the same. 2 grandparents with cancer, one that didn't overcome it. But fortunately (or as however you want to see it) I don't care much for my family, so I was never in a state of tragedy regarding it.

Phantom you changed, your userpage info. My b/p been crap lately not one for doing much b/p.

Yeah, I thought it was time for a change, the only thing even newer but hasn't been posted, is the new lack of scotch because I finished that last bottle, and didn't get a new one yet.

I remember. We even had a banner made up and a basic site design. But I don't remember who did all of that. We need to dig up those lost posts so we don't have to rethink them again, wasting brain space.

TBH I think it would be more effort to go digging through old pages of this thread than just slapping down the ideas in the new thread over in our forums. For me, anyway. Unless you happen to know off the top of your head what date / pages we were talking about the possibility of a website, that is...?

Hello, you'll have to wait until SlashFirestorm (our recruitment officer) comes along to start the recruitment process. In the meantime, have a read of the following:

Barracks FAQ
Barracks Officer List
Elite Guard Barracks Manifesto

That should help you familiarize yourself with who we are, what we do, and the way in which we run. The recruitment process will be explained to you by Slash when he sees you've applied.

Good luck.

Sorry, it was a reference to the movie, A Christmas Story, where the dad gets a Leg Lamp from a newspaper contest. He then proceeds to display the "major award" in the front window for the neighborhood to see.

It was around the 850's, I believe. We had a banner, a slick home page, and a flash module that had the Defcon rating (although it wasn't made, but the idea was there).

I thought he did well for his first two flashes. I helped, but he did all of the hard work. Too bad the second one took the Daily 6th, which is only a runner up. It was only .2 away from taking a daily award.

Not only that but he linked to the search page for his flash, the Review Request Club only want direct links to flash, so all the same it's wrong :(

Also, anyone spot that flash that spawned popups today? I thought people had stoped doing that, been a while since I've seen one anyway. It's flagged now though ;)
