 To spaehair i did find out about the skill. The training was quick and what we as do is set up trouble tickets for business that call. So i seems that its easy work, seems like its stress free but really will not know until we start taking calls on May 24,25,26 or June 2. And the name of the new skill is Avaya TRW General Business

 Thanks, I was wondering if I did the training how long it would be before the webinar and then how long before you started working. Also, do you have to wait on your logins as with some other skills?

 To Vagabond
 
 I completed the training on May 18,09 i had the times emailed to me the same day for the webby. And we will not be able to take calls until May 24,25,26 or June 2. And as for the logins they are automatically put into the system, she told us once we see the hours in spectrum then we are able to start taking calls and setting our schedule she did tell us to work 30min intervals to get use to the system don't over do it with alot of hours. She said once we are comfortable then we can work as much as we want to.

 I did the training and finished the webinar today.  This will be the first time I have taken calls.  I'm a little nervous, but I think I can make it.

 Ok, so my status was updated to active for the skill and I have spectrum as an option (which I didn't before), but there are no hours.  Does anyone know if this means they are all gone or have yet to be posted?  Thanks guys!!

 They said in the webinar I attended today that they are hoping for a start up date of June 2nd to keep watching for hours as they could be posted the night before.  That is for the ERS version there are two lines for this skill I believe the other is general office or perhaps GRS.

 The hours are Monday-Sunday 7 am-8pm CST. The P*L I spoke to said that as far as any posting of hours they will  know about thirty minutes before it is going to happen.

 To Nikkbunny
 
 On West website in the posting that you read about the description of the job that they sent out. It said that there operation hours are Mon-Sun from 7am-8pm cst unless they are doing some false advertisment of job description.

 I don't think they really know anything for sure yet because they have not done this skill before. The pals are almost as lost as we are.

 Well look like we are on our own if they are lost and they are the people we have to called and ask questions about the Avaya skill then they do not need to be a pal.

 It will all work out, just don't be surprised if you get several different answers in the beginning at least. Look at it this way, they can't say you are doing something wrong if they never told you how.

 To Vagabond - unfortunately the P*Ls don't know much about the C*t* line either but they tell you anything, even if it's wrong, and you will still get dinged for it. They aere STILL giving out oncorrect info to agents. It might not be as bad for the av*y* skill because there can't be more crap than c*t* has for P*Ls to screw up.

 I agree with you on that cause if they really knew what they were talking about then we would have a better off job

 Lots of miscommunication & computer problems in the month of May - Mercury was retrograde.  Mercury was the God of Communication - hence when it is retrograde - major lost information.
