Entry: Rude Tuesday, November 01, 2005



Any telemarketer out there want a hint? DO....

...........................NOT!, and I mean.. NOT! EVER AGAIN give me a nasty sigh when after you say,

"But Ma'am, isn't it worth your time to spend fifteen minutes for a free quote to see if we can save you money?" To which I answer, "No, I believe I've tried to politely tell you that THREE times now!"

Any way you cut the mustard, I am the potential customer and you are intruding on my own home, time and priorities.

I'll hand you this one, it was calling for our business which IS untfortunately still allowed to happen. But ... Oh for Pete's Sake.. now another one. She's polite. Forced to be courteous while she tries to convinve me I have a free trip to Hilton Island. She was, afterall... a recording. Where is that zapper gizmo?

I'm tired of them trying to convince me that I need another satellite dish on my roof.

If you wait through the recording you acn usually dial a number to be removed from the calling list, but what really worked for us was getting on the national No Call registry. I can actually finish dinner now. LOL

I agree with Garrison! We should have a gizmo to make them never, never, never want to ring THAT number again.
Saying that - I no longer have ANY patience with any telemarketer - they get nothing but a hello and a hang-up. Rude? You betcha and proud of it!

There should be a way to send several hundred thousand watts of magnetized energy back through the phone lines. Such would eliminate this nonsense.
