Credit Card Applications

My full time job right now is in a call center and I work for one of the major banks taking credit card applications for them. I really enjoy my job even though at times it can be stressful it is normally just as much amusing. For example the people that call in complaining because they got a credit card application in the mail. I just sit and think come one would you have rather gotten that so called "junk mail" or would you rather have gotten your bills? I would rather get the junk mail. Because I hate to pay bills. It is just funny that they get worked up about something so unimportant in the overall scheme of life.

It is also equally amusing that everyone who calls to apply for a credit card always has "perfect credit." We have come to the conclusion that the person who always boasts about their perfect credit will always get denied for a credit card. But it is very much a relief when someone who calls doesn't think they will get approved and they normally do. I really like my job taking credit card apps and helping the citizens of this country sink more and more into debt. Just kidding I don't wish debt on anyone it is just that the credit card debt of other people helps pay my paycheck. :P
