One of the worst jobs i did was working in a call centre in North London for a company that shall reamain unnamed but they sucked big time.We had to do market research on the phone and this involved reading from a script without been able to paraphrase.So i had to ask random Northern England and Scottish housewives( and grannies sometimes) about their sexual habits and how many times they washed their cars wich,as you can imagine,wasn't a simple task at all.The worst was when you had to target a certain group,say,16 to 18 year olds at a time when most british teenagers are out getting on with their youth.The cruelty of this was also the fact that you were supervised by a walking elephant that would spout out every few minutes stuff like:''Go on folks,the target is.....''.I lasted about a week or so.They gave me a call asking for availability.I put the phone down.
