call avoidance

once a CCA hits the floor..."readiness to take the call" should be the mood...no ifs...no buts...

there are mortal sins that CCA needs to avoid.
first: no sleeping during calls.. if caught , that would be automatic corrective action.
second: never put the caller on hold for long minutes. it's bad customer impact.
third: avoid more than 5 minutes idle time. it keeps away the callers..
and lastly: do not release a call..!

so sure i am that they are mortal sins for CCA's... and it's because....i had committed all items....guilty beyond reasonable doubt..it happened when i was so new on the industry and still unsure of the process...my TL had monitored some my calls which fell under the category of mortal sins.. it was a big deal...i was given a final written warning...leading to termination... the upper management had a meeting regarding my status.. i knew then that it will be the end of my call center career because i have committed a mortal sin..."RELEASING A CALL"... only one thing saved me... integrity.

when my TL asked me if i actually did it in purpose... i admitted the wrong action right away.. i said i deliberately released the call because i was so afraid i wasnt of help to the caller...

our company honors honesty... there were some agents who were caught guilty of the same thing but denied the actions... i was the only one who was brave enough to take the blame.... however apologetic and sincere... i was given another chance.. and the rest is history...

it pays to be like don quixote....."honesty is more effective than dishonest scheming"
