It is difficult to spend all day on the phone dealing with people you barely know, day after day. It is even more challenging to do it under constant pressure to keep call volumes up. And perhaps the most difficult of all is doing it with “very little authority or autonomy to rectify problems” that arise. These are just some common challenges that an inbound call center agent experiences.
In general, working in a Philippine call center is very stressful. While experts say that some stress is good for you—it can sharpen your senses and your mind—too much stress is bad for your mental and physical health. At the same time, relaxation can do wonders to restore balance in your life and may even reduce some of the health risks associated with stress.
Taking time out for ourselves is not selfish but an essential part of maintaining a healthy mind, body, and spirit. There are simple and affordable ways to pamper yourself. Exclusive time is the first thing you need. Take a hot shower after work. Pamper your body and skin by taking care of it. Moisturize your body, trim your nails, manicure and pedicure at home, and indulge in basic skin care steps.
A body massage can also help. The daily hustle of life drains our bodies of energy, and thus, a small nap can do wonders for re-energizing your mind and body. Go out for a walk, meditate, join a yoga class, read books, listen to your favorite music, prepare your favorite dish, watch movies with your friends, and do so many other things. As long as you give yourself time that makes you happy, you deserve it.
