Today was one month at the call center I work at now. I thought it would be fairly easy, because I come from a political/nonprofit fundraising background, and a lot of the skills are transferable. Holy poo poo I was not correct. Tonight was the third night in a row that I've come very close to breaking down in tears. Everything is corporate and driven by profit motive and I am adding nothing of any value to the world. This job makes my soul hurt.

I want to get back into the nonprofit sector, and there are a couple in my area that are hiring for finance/development assistants, which would be right up my alley. Until then, I can clock out any time I like, but I can never leave.

Is it normal for supervisors to act annoyed when you ask them for help, or is mine just bad?

Ugh the last 5-10 minutes before the end of shift are the worst, because when a call comes in, you're basically guaranteed to not be clocking out on time. I got one today at 10:56 (I work 2:30-11:00) and I would have been furious if she weren't one of the sweetest clients I've gotten so far. She went out of her way to be nice, thank me, and tell me how helpful I'd been, as well as crack a couple jokes with me
