To Share or Not to Share? That is the Question.


To Share or Not to Share? That is the Question.

Sarah Little, Total Quality Assurance Services Executive and mother, draws a parallel between day care and the property management industry in today’s business blog.

Welcome to PhoneSmart’s call center blog, the true confessions of a self storage and apartment call center.

Day care has been a great social experience for my son, Isaiah. As my first child, he doesn’t have older brothers and sisters to play with. Day care has helped him learn to play with other kids his own age. It’s also taught him to share, although it seems that recently his playmates have been sharing germs more than Elmo dolls.

Last Wednesday I got a call from the teacher saying that Isaiah was sick and I needed to come pick him up. When I arrived they told me that another little girl had a contagious virus, and Isaiah most likely caught it. I took him home, and played hooky from work on Thursday day so he could get to feeling better. By Friday he was back to his inquisitive little self.

I admit, I enjoyed all the extra hugs and kisses I received while he was feeling down, but I’m glad he’s back to bouncing off the walls.

The office can sometimes feel not unlike a day care; in the sense that we sometimes share germs more than we share sticky notes. (We have to keep our extra sticky pads under lock and key or they’ll end up taking a ride in someone’s back pocket.) When you’re feeling under the weather, and especially if you have a fever, do your coworkers a favor and stay in bed. You’ll be much more productive the next day and all your peers won’t be sniffling along side you.

We all want to learn how to keep our office more germ free, especially in a call center where we’re all living to closely to one another. Practicing good hygiene, washing hands, covering mouths, and staying home when we’re really sick can make a big difference.
