Is this for real? Man bashes school for call center job search referral

Again we have to ask: Is this guy for real?

The post made by a Facebook user going by the name Erickson Ignacio Marcos has made the rounds on social media. Apparently, Marcos, who is a new graduate, is mad at his school (various reports tag his alleged alma mater as National University) for submitting his contact details to a call center.

We’re reposting Marcos’ post below (text unedited):

 

Early this morning I recieved a text message from a CALL CENTER COMPANY and offer me a job as data analyst, sadly they got my contact details from my own and beloved ALMA MATER.

Yes I am jobless right now but I am a 5 YEAR DEGREE HOLDER and this job referal is a mock to my face and to my profession!! (no offense to all my relatives and friends who are in the call center industry). I am just very disappointed to my ALMA MATER by doing this!

How shameless are you by doing this to me and to all the alumni of our beloved University. Is this the dream that you offer to us when we first enter the door of our University? You want us to become CALL CENTER AGENTS? (again no offense).

It is tempting to all jobless graduates to grab this kind of opportunity but if you think that this referal help your graduates its a big NO! NO! its better you didn’t do this! This only show that our University didnd’t care about the future of their Graduates but we are only good in PULICITY. ‪#‎EducationNotForSale‬ ‪#‎StopCommercialism‬ ‪#‎SortFirstBeforeReferal‬ ‪#‎RIPtoallJoblessGraduates‬
