Fuck me. Started a new job yesterday, at a "debt resolution" company. This place is a joke. I mean, a total fucking scam. People pay them a monthly fee. In return, this company advises them to stop paying their bills and open a savings account. Each month, the client deposits a sum in the account, of which this company takes half as their "service fee". Then, after 70 months, the account should have accumulated a reasonable amount, and the company starts to try to come to settlement arrangements with the creditors. Most of these shmuckls don't even realize that they're supposed to open the account, they think this company fdoes that for them. Or they end up paying the monthly fee, thinking that the company's making payments to their creditors. These people are wrecking their credit, getting sued left and right, having liens filed on their homes, and paying this company for the privelege.

What. The. Fuck?

I feel like a total dick just working in customer service. I've been training for the last 2 days, which means I've just been sitting with this chick and listening to her tell people, very politely, that they're fucked.

I've spent the last 13 months looking for a nice, respectable administrative job. Nobody's biting. It was either take this job or work in collections again, which almost killed me the first time around. Literally.

So here I am. Collecting a paycheck from a company who went to the Joe Francis school of ethics and morals. I feel gross.
