AOL jobs any good?

[fustercluck]

I'm thinking about getting a job as an AOL tech support guy, i wonder if anyone has anything to say about working for AOL. It looks pretty good on paper, $10 an hour, 18 paid days off, lots of medical benefits. I can't imagine it being too GOOD of a job, but it's not likely i'm going to find a job i like anyways. Anyone think it's a bad idea? Anyone who previously worked the same position?

 

Just make sure you don't have a loaded gun in the house or you'll fire one off in your mouth by the end of your first week.

You'd probably have some great tech tales to tell.

if you have the patience to support aol members (who we all know aren't the brightest the interweb has to offer)--go for it.

If I'm not mistaken, wouldn't it be your duty to calm the people frantically calling because their email says "forward this to 20 people or you will be deleted from AOL" and they only have 18 people in their folder?

Gte a recording that says.....


1. "Please restart you system and call back if that does not fix....."
2. "Please reinstall and call back if that does not fix....."
3. "Your system does not have enough.... to install aol X.0"
4. "There is nothing wrong with aol, it does not work when the power for you computer is turned off..."
5. "Please hold while I look that up" CLICK


This will answer 90% of your questions
