Do anyone else's call center have a "pet wall" where you can post a photo of your pet to look at when you get stressed? I find it incredibly depressing.

We don't have a pet wall but we do this from time to time when we have contests like guess who this is as a child. I think this is cool. I don't think i would find it depressing. I love animals so much and I find them adorable.

We don't. But I love the idea. Why do you find it depressing though?

Unfortunately, we don't. But I don't think it's depressing. I'd love it we have the same thing in our office.

We don't have one. What we have is "pet day". So basically, we are allowed to bring our pets into the office which means no work for us. Haha

That is actually a great idea. How long have you been doing it?

Been with company for 2.5 years in a SFA role, and they just let me hire an associate financial analyst reporting into me. My manager never mentioned anything in regards to a promotion, but when I asked, I was told that there will be an evaluation period before any promotion is given. Has anyone else had this before, where you are managing someone but they don’t give you a promotion? Sounds bizarre to me that they allow me to hire someone but then are hesitant to promote.
