It is said that "Laughter is the best medicine." We've heard that saying or expression since first grade.

For that reason, I'd like to share this collection of telephone conversation or commonly called call center bloopers that I got from the call center industry. I hope you'd enjoy reading the following phone conversations below.

How to Make an Aquarium

Hi, whatzup! ^^

I had four days off from work last week from Sunday to Wednesday. It's because I had 2 days vacation leave from work and two rest days. Sunday was our family day slash worship day. On Monday we went to Aqua Cainta - a pool resort nearby. On Tuesday I got bored. So I decided to buy a fish as a pet.

I've always been interested with ornamental fishes. When I was a kid, I used to buy gold fish from a near by pet shop but it always end up dead the next day or next week. It's because I didn't know how to take care of it back then.

So again, I bought 3 red-capped gold fishes, an 8 x 12 x 6 small aquarium and some aquatic plants.


... and of course some pebbles to deceive the fishes. Aquatic plants shown above are being sold for only P5.


... aren't they lovely? ^^
There ye go fish! Please my babies go ye and multiply. LOL

Hmm... I'm thinking of giving them names. What do you think would be good names for them?

Tips on Successfully Getting a Job at a Call Center

Business Process Outsourcing has become a trend in the business world nowadays. More and more call centers have been sprouting rapidly in Asia particularly here in the Philippines. If you are a fresh graduate, you might be thinking of trying your luck at one of these BPO companies. Being one of the call center agents for 3 years now, let me give you a few tips on how to successfully pass the Job Interview.


A call center screening process has typically 3 stages:

First Stage: Initial Interview
Second Stage: Examination or Assessment
Third Stage: Final Interview with the HR Manager or Account Manager


Initial Interview

It can be conducted either in person or over the phone. If you're applying online, most likely, you will receive a phone call for an initial interview over the phone. Usually, the interviewer asks a series of questions (like 3-5 questions) about you.



Most Common Question on a job interview:

“Tell Me about Yourself”

At this point, the interviewer is looking at your resume, thus, there’s no need to repeat everything you wrote on your resume.

Tip: Give answers that would say more about your character as a person like…

Basically, I’m the kind of person who enjoys working with different kinds of individual. I think the thought of working with different kinds of people of different characters and how one would adapt or adjust with each other is very challenging and I like/love challenges. I enjoy variations and can appreciate individuality.

Common Mistakes: Beginning the answer with “I am and I live in . In other words, please stop telling what’s obviously written in your resume.

Be Ready to Have a Baby

My mom has been asking me when will she ever have a grandchild from me. Well, that's a tough question to answer especially if I haven't even thought of getting married.

You see, it's not easy to become a parent. Babies need a lot of attention and tender loving care. Not only for a certain period of time within a day but regularly - yes, throughout the day.

To be able to fulfill their responsibility properly, parents need a lot of preparation for their baby's arrival. Just like any major step in life, like getting married or even putting up a business, one must first sit down and carefully calculate the expense. Raising a child, which is also known as a 20-year project or more than that, is a lot more complicated than running a business.

One must be mentally, emotionally, spiritually and most of all, financially ready before deciding to bear a child. Pregnancy can be a disaster to a lady if both parties are not ready. Thankfully there is an available Pregnancy forum online that can help young parents with all of the latest information regarding everything we need to know about pregnancy and what to expect, through to everything we need to know about raising a baby. If you are having a baby or planning to have one, you might want to register at BabiesBase. Registration is free.
