GIVEAWAY: Confessions of a Call Center Gal by Lisa Lim

Madison Lee is a fresh college grad, ready to take on the world of print media. But she has zero luck landing a job. Unemployment is at ten percent and on the rise. Desperate and left with no other options, she accepts a position as a service rep at a call center in Pocatello, Idaho. At the Lightning Speed call center in Spudsville, Maddy plunges into the wild and dysfunctional world of customer service where Sales is prided over Service and an eight hour shift is equivalent to eight hours of callers bashing her over the phone. Oh sure, the calls are bad. But Maddy manages to find humor on the phone and off the phone. And with all the salacious drama behind the calls, there is never a dull moment at the Lightning Speed call center.

Lately . . . Maddy has been pining for her smolderingly gorgeous co-worker Mika Harket. Now things are heating up on the phone–and elsewhere. Don’t hang up on this novel. Working at a call center has never been this garish . . . or this delightful.

I have two copies of Confessions of a Call Center Gal by Lisa Lim for giveaway- one paperback and one eCopy. To enter, please leave a comment below letting me know why you want to win, and please include if you would prefer paperback or eBook. Winners will be chosen Thursday, July 7. Thank you to Lisa Lim for sponsoring this giveaway!

    I would like to win because I can relate to Maddy. I graduated from college and it took me four months to find a job that I thought was beneath me. But it was a job and I still work for the company.

    I have an e-reader so an e-book is fine. Thanks!

    This book reminds em of the days I worked at a call center selling $46000.00 online associate degrees. And I miss absolutely none of those days except for sitting all day and talking on the phone, since I am now a nurse… haha! There are some real wack-jobs you come into contact with. And I can only imagine the type of hillarious situations that happen in this book. Send to me!!! Paper back please!! Thanks.
