Spitting and Shaking with Anger
Sep. 14th, 2006 12:04 pmIf a Canadian telemarketer calls you, you ask to be added to a no-call list for the company. I did it successfully last week and they were very polite about it.
I just got an automated call saying I had won a trip. "To claim your prize, press '9'" so I did and waited.
When someone finally answered, I said, "I want to be added to your no-call list."
Pause. New person comes on, "Hello?" New Jersey accent, I think.
"Hello, I want to be added to your no-call list."
"Well, how about I add you to a national list so you can receive more calls from more companies."
"What?"
"I'll add you to a national call list and that will work out better for you."
"What are you talking about?"
"Why don't you clean your fucking ears? I'm gonna add you to a list and you'll get calls all the fucking time! How do you like that?"
I hung up.
Charming.
