A taxi dispatch center converted from a residence. The owner’s wife lives in a room inside the dispatch center. I previously worked the graveyard shift. At first, I wasn’t familiar with the routes, so I would be called to the company in the morning to recite the map in front of the owner’s wife (but I was paid for it). The coworkers were extremely exclusionary because adding another dispatcher would lower each person’s salary and individual bonus.
By the way, the owner’s wife would stand beside you and give instructions while you worked, and fart at the same time—the kind of farting that is genuinely farting.
1. Indoor work with air conditioning
2. Considered high pay for an office job in southern Taiwan
1. The boss’s wife is emotional and has a traditional, old-fashioned management style with a strong sense of entitlement as an employer; she only makes things worse
2. They will send you wherever there is a staff shortage, so the job may be completely different from what was discussed during the interview
3. Overtime is required
Indoor work
The workplace is inside a building that has been converted from a residence into a satellite dispatch station for taxis, and the owner also lives there. I applied for a part-time position, but the interview was perfunctory: after asking my name, typing speed, and whether I was from Kaohsiung, it was over. There was no pre-job training. They simply told me to sit next to someone and watch them work. After watching for one morning, I was told to answer the phones the next day. New employees are inevitably flustered at first. The owner's wife would come out to help, but if you moved too slowly, she would scold you directly, and she would insist that she had taught you things she had never taught you. She kept saying, “Every new employee goes through a period of unfamiliarity,” while continuing to scold you⋯. The experienced senior staff were also extremely unpleasant! On my second day, I still hadn’t figured out the finer points of the job, but any mistake would get me chewed out (as if inexperienced people are supposed to be very capable). No meals, no lunch break, and no break time. You can bring your own food and eat while working (though many people didn’t eat). To save electricity, they didn’t turn on the air conditioning. With so many computers in one place, it was unbearably hot! There were only three electric fans. It felt like a very unfriendly environment for newcomers. If you can put up with an emotional owner's wife and nasty senior staff, you can give it a try.

The working environment is terrible; the satellite radio station operates out of the boss's wife's home. The job involves providing customer service and dispatching taxis. The coworkers are difficult to get along with. Getting calls means meeting performance targets, so they are extremely unfriendly toward newcomers and have a serious tendency to exclude outsiders. The boss's wife is very exploitative: as long as you work, there are no benefits or leave whatsoever. I quit after working there for just one day, and only later discovered that they had not even enrolled me in labor or health insurance. You could try it as a part-time job, but if you want a full-time position, do not come here under any circumstances—you will regret it!
