Filipino Call Center Terms – Part 2

Here are other words that I thought would enrich our collection of Filipino Call Center Terms.

BS Call Center. (noun). A degree that an agents get when he/she hops from one call center to another. There is no definite number of company where an agent has worked or the time spent in each workplace needed to get this degree.

Haduken. (verb). Supposedly the new term for “pitik,” which is a deliberate action of putting oneself at the end of the queue in order to get less calls.

Santo Niño. (adverb). The voice of an agent whenever he/she is “paos” or “minamalat.” The term is derived from how people, allegedly possessed by the child Jesus, sound like.

Worst Force. (noun, but could also be an adjective). Refers to the department who creates the schedule and whom we call whenever we will be absent for the shift. They are properly called “workforce,” but because of the bad schedule they give to the agents, they are the least liked department. Another variation is work horse, an adjective referring to how people in the department looks like.
