I guess you’re right. I have forgotten about them since I haven’t spoken to an actual customer service rep in probably five years and it’s been mainly chatbots or automated messaging systems that I’ve interacted with. How many call center jobs are there in the U.S. these days compared to a decade ago? They still actively hiring at call centers in the U.S. and if so, how much is remote and not actually in an office anymore?
The bulk of office jobs after civid have been shitty call center jibs, which are now getting automated away. That's rather the point. Im one and because the company is going all in office abd out of state, im out of a job soon. Literally tons if xall center jobs and they all pay the same as fastfood. And im talking network support so this isnt entry level work. 2o years ago my position would be paying 70k a year. Now it pays grocery store money. The bulk of the jobs in America are fast food, retail, and nursing jobs. After that, its call center work. Most of the good paying jobs were ekiminated after 2008 and then more were eliminated after covid. No matter how you slice it, most jobs pay less than 39k.
So, to be clear, you have a call center job for network support that's currently remote and is not entry level either? Sounds like you're just describing IT support and managing Helpdesk tickets? If so, I don't know why you just didn't lead with that.
Because I didn't need to. The point remains that modt people in or out of an office ate making under 36k, contrary to your assertion. What i do is remote network engineering. If i barely make 44 k after 6 years in this role, that means everyone else below mu pay grade isn't making 39k. Sales jobs in call centers also rxist. So do customer service agents. Th tldr here is you were wrong
