Why am I really bad at the phone aspect of my job?

[Bethany22]

I always seem to have a fuzzy connection, whereby I can't hear anything, and people talking to me a mile a minute explaining all kinds of details that I can't possibly write all down without asking them to repeat things several times. It's a nightmare, especially when it's a really busy office.

Make sure your phone cord isn’t tangled this is a small but important thing first. Second are you getting enough sleep? From some of your posts I think you’re not getting enough sleep. Also try this first get more sleep but try eating a high protein high fat low carb diet any carbs eat after work. And cut out artificial flavors and colors I bet this helps

I've experienced that several times. You just have to repeat back what they said in that moment and if you got something wrong, trust that the client will correct you

You’re one of the reasons why I’m happily leaving this app lol

I have been away for a month and came back to this and a couple of same old questions.

Like dammit what made me come here in the first place.

I guess time makes you acknowledge and reflect on choices you make.

bye bye Beth beth

And my advice, life is bigger than being on such website.
Take this seriously, don’t waste time on here even if you get paid

Im in that same boat. Im in the middle of Vehicle inspections and the phone rings in the middle of it. I've been taught finish the inspection first then call back through caller ID or get it on the message machine. Half the time its customers that call me to argue price.

are you wearing a headset? nowadays every call center uses VOIP Voice Over Internet Portal and connections are only 60% reliable where sometimes there is static or other times it sounds like the person on the other end is whispering and so on. when cellphone companies became deregulated to break the monopoly Verizon Wireless got desperate an used an ad pitch of "CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW". in closing the worst part of the bad connections is a language barrier

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

That happens with them type of jobs

[pizzalovershouse]
