I feel your pain, OP Don't do craigslist anymore hun. But yea, the job market in Canada is not what they would have you believe. Try indeed.com, workopolis, careerbuilder. Even jobbank has many scam companies. Be careful and good luck. I hope you find a position soon.

You remixed the script after they specifically told you that you were on probation...
Made it seem like you can't/won't follow directions from the jump.

And yes, you should have followed the script. If the script didn't make sense, then speaking to a supervisor and letting them know that this is gramaticallly incorrect, or incomprehensible etc would have been the best option.
I have called people out on their horribly worded job applications before, and got the job probably because I sh*tted on them and they had their tails between their legs.

call center scripts are not a suggestion. they are mandatory. when the calls are monitored by QA, they're looking to see if you use the correct opening script, closing script, and whatever they require in the middle.

As far as I know with the call centers I've worked at we didn't have to follow their script word for word. Either way I'm wondering why they were taking calls after being there only three days anyway

What makes the company a scam? Were you not paid?
It ain't a scam if they fired you for not following directions

Dang girl. It was probably one of those fly by night companies. I was hired at a company that solicited for donations. Manager was ripping pages out of the phone book for us to randomly call folks for money. Your check was based on the amount of the donation. I gently asked what time lunch was and hauled arse without ever looking back!!
