Telemarketers - Maggot - 05-07-2012
Every day I get calls from Indian telemarketers at work, they call and try to sell me crap from material handling stuff to computer payroll software.
This morning I have begun to use a different tactic.
Me: hello
indian bitch: hello sir I am calling to see if it would be OK to send you an information packet BLA BLA BLA.....on she went.
Me; huh?
Indian bitch: hello sir I am calling to see if it would be OK to send you an information packet BLA BLA BLA.
Me: Celeste no!! ......No Celeste::
Indian bitch: excuse me?
Me: Celeste put the gun down......PUT IT DOWN!!!
BANG!!! (I slammed my phone book on the table)
Indian bitch: sir.....sir.....
Me: sinister laugh...hee hee hee.........
HANGUP
I'm wondering if she will call the cops from india on me.

I just repeat everything they say back to them. Since they repeat everything they hear back to you, we never get past the first line.

I dated a telemarketer once. But to be fair, I knew him before he was a telemarketer. We got back together and bang, there it was.

I always ask them to hold for a minute lay the phone down come back in about 5 minutes and they are usually gone, if they aren't I let them get about 2 words out and ask them to hold on again and repeat until they take me off their call list.

Election season has apparently spawned a slick new way for telemarketers to get around the "Do Not Call" registry — hiding a timeshare sales pitch behind a phony political poll, say critics.
With telemarketers barred from robo-calling people on the "Do Not Call" registry, a new phone campaign called "Political Opinions of America" offers a three-question "poll," and then offers a reward that sounds suspiciously like a classic timeshare sales pitch. An automated voice asks the recipient to complete a quick survey with questions like: “What’s the most important thing to restore our economy?” Other questions include: “How would you rate the job that President Obama is doing?”
After answering, the user is transferred to a live operator from “corporate travel services” who is giving away free cruises thanks to an anonymous donor. The offer allows up to four free guests and requires a $60 per person “port fee” to be secured by a credit card.
