About book Confessions Of A Call Center Gal (2011)
Anyone who has every worked customer service will relate to the tales the author tells about her job. They are amusing and true to life. But the novel lacks any real plot. Basically she gets a job at a call center, has a mild crush on a coworker, and that's about it. Fairly boring but the writing is light and amusing. She mentions Chelsea Handler more than once and I think her humor and point of view are similar. The book made me chuckle but I would be annoyed if I had paid more than a couple of bucks for it. Confessions of a Call Center Gal is a humorous (and politically incorrect) novel about complex friendships and the stress and stigmas associated with bad jobs. Maddie and Karsynn (how FAB is her name) are your typical 20-somethings, fresh out of college and searching for a job. Instead of sulking and going into debt they decide to work in a call center. What follows is a hilarious adventure with EXTREMELY realistic characters and life lessons. I've personally worked in a call center for 5 years (I know how am I still alive.) Maddie's coworkers and rude customers actually left a huge grin on my face. See all this time I thought I was the crazy one, I was the one with the problem, hating my job just wasn't justified. *side eye* But now thanks to Maddie, Karsynn, and Mika I know that customer service representatives (such a fancy title for such a crappy job) everywhere feel the EXACT same way.I recommend Confessions to anyone who has ever worked in a call center, had a relative that worked in a call center, or has ever called a call center (that should cover just about the entire global population.) Now I can't end this review without warning the prude to stay far far away from this book. There are several culturally and politically sensitive jokes throughout Confessions. If you are easily offend than this is not the book for you
