Wacky, Wild Weather And Self Storage
-
We have had several strange things happen the last couple of weeks while working at the Phone Smart Call Center. But through thick and thin PhoneSmart deals with adversity to keep our Call Center operating.
On Sunday, December 9th Mid-Missouri received a blanket of ice causing havoc on power lines and roadways. Emergency personal requested everyone stay at home and off of the streets so they could get everything back in order. PhoneSmart complied with this request and unfortunately was forced to close for the day. Two days later Columbia was again forecasted to receive another terrible snow/ice storm, so Tron went into action. He found a few volunteers to spend the night in sleeping bags on the PhoneSmart floor so they would be on hand to open the call center in the morning. Thankfully, this second storm missed us.
On December 20th about 9am the lights all went out in the PhoneSmart Call Center. This was not due to Mother Nature, but to the power company having problems with a transformer. Our emergency generator kicked on so we still had telephones and computers, but we couldn’t see a thing! Our self storage phone reps were very resourceful and collected flashlights and candles to help everyone see what we were doing.
Monday was January 7th and Mid-Missouri had tornado warnings. Now this is a common occurrence in the springtime, but never in the winter. (Never say Never!) All of the phone reps left their workstations and went to a designated safe area. After the all-clear was given we simply went back to work, with yet another interesting tale to tell our family and friends
Working at the PhoneSmart Call Center there is never a dull moment!
