"I'm working full-time again. At another bank. Another call centre. The work is good, the people are good, the salary isn't so good, but I have few choices: I often wish I could shout at my employers, "PAY ME MORE, I'M SO DAMN TALENTED AT THINGS.""
Apparently my employers heard me.
I was promoted today.
I'm happy about that, I think.
Yes.
Yes, I am.
Although, now I'm above most of my peers; it's going to be weird being their superior and not simply thinking I am.

And that was pretty quick o.O

Um... Cheese!
And no kidding. They told me that I was their prime candidate for the position, which I'm assuming means, "YOU SPEAK FRENCH, PLEASE LOVE US." Although, there are a couple other people who speak French, so I must have simply had better performance scores in the last month and a half.
I've been promoted to Team Lead for the Canadian account, which launches at the end of August. I don't have to take calls anymore starting Monday, but I'm expected to be an expert on product knowledge and to handle upset customers.
Should be fun.
Don't fuck it up.

PS - You complete me.
The fortunate thing is that if I do fuck it up, not enough people speak French to understand what happened.
When I applied for the job, they spent half an hour looking for someone who spoke French just to verify if I was actually bilingual. They couldn't find anyone and had to have their only bilingual supervisor give me a telephone interview.
Good times.
