Could be also that the call centers metrics were just absolutely horrid , and they had no way of fixing it or fixing it would cost too much attentionmoney . So they just abandon it and get rid of it . <| sep |> Landscaping . For 4 years I landscaped making close to $ 40 hr when I worked . Unfortunately I did not have steady hours and the heat and exhaustion were just not worth it . Now I ' m a zip line safety guide and it is amazing . I pick up extra shifts whenever possible , sometimes not even doing my zip line job , I get shifts working on the other side of the mountain doing a ropes course or even working summer camps . Now I make $ 10 hr but I know that I will never get these years back and to be able to enjoy them is totally worth the pay cut . I am 20 and also in college if it matters .
