    You should have ended it by linking to your game page at least three more times, would have been apt!! Seriously though, good luck.

    Good luck duder. I also work in a call center, but I got moved up a level where I only make calls out now. It still sucks, but at least I don't get that same call over and over.

    There are better jobs out there, keep looking.

    @Zvarri: grats duder , tbh this is on my "i may check it out when i get incredibly bored" bookmark list .. but im always supportive of ppl making the effort to release something as seemingly personal as this. From what i heard jasper byrne went thru alot of shit making lone survivor , and even more introspective madness after it came out and ppl started giving their opinions etc.

    good luck !

    Ya, I work at a call center doing internet tech support. Well, I work from home, but still same job. 
     
    Every call is indeed an unwinnable scenario.

    Oh god, it's been a couple of years since I worked in a call centre, and just reading the description for this game is making my stomach tighten in recognition. Steeling myself to check it out, this looks like a fantastic creative reaction to a side of modern life that I think is underrepresented artistically.

    @Zvarri: Hey, you got on the front page of the site.
     
    I'd say clean up the wiki page a little.   Youtube links in the description line look kind of weird.

    I just read the premise of your game and it is not a Kobayashi Maru at all. If the call ends with you doing nothing and the idiot customer hanging up pissed off you definitely won the scenario. As a guy who works a call centre I am sure you can understand why I say this. To be more realistic next time you should also include an option to place the customer on hold while you tell your co worked what a #@!#^&*!!&($ dumb (@$^& monkey your customer is.

    Aw, man. Just read that you lost your job 'cause of this. How terrible. I hope the sales of the game keeps you afloat for a while, whilst you look for another one.
