Assisting customers when baby, its cold outside.

Sorry for the long rant, but hear me out and I'm sure a lot of tenure telesales employees will agree.. Telesales used to be money central. Put the work in and get paid fairly well. I would say starting when they nationalized everything, then... — read more
