Being a travel agent
July 11th 2008 11:19
I got this in the email and I thought was worthwhile forwarding on. In no way does it represent my feelings towards working in the travel industry, however the industry can be very difficult when airlines keep changing prices all the time and having to deal with unhappy customers as well as arrogant airlines at the same time.
Anyways, enjoy. Don't take it too seriously..
Last night as I lay sleeping
I died or so it seemed,
Then I went to heaven
But only in my dream
Up there St Peter met me
Standing at the pearly gates,
He said "I must check your record
Please stand here and wait."
He turned and said "Your record
Is covered with terrible flaws,
On earth I see you rallied
For every losing cause."
I see that you drank alcohol
And smoked and partied too,
Fact is, you've done everything
A good person should never do.
We can't have people like you up here
Your life was full of sin,
Then he read the last of my record
Took my hand and said "Come in."
He led me up to the big boss and said
"Take her in and treat her well",
She used to work in Travel
She's done her time in hell."

Not that it is the travel agents fault it is unfair if customers take it out on you.

I was just declined for a job at Flight Centre earlier this week, so I feel a bit less bummed about that now... still, it would have been nice to try it!
Best of luck,
P.S. Would I be able to book with you in Coffs if I always travel out of Sydney?

PMC - it's really actually not that bad. I've just came back from our annual awards ball in Sydney and it was massive. Like I said it's hard work but they reward and recognise you for it.
Of course you can!

Would I be able to purchase a flight from Cairo to Bangkok from Australia, do you think?
