HOW RUDE!
#8
I'm rude to people on the phone all of the time; get a lot of sales and survey calls. Some of them are recordings, so I just hang up immediately - click, no problem.

But, more than half are people trying to pimp some service I don't need or get me to provide a bunch of data when I don't have time to tie up the phones. "Sorry, not interested, but thanks for calling". Click. I say that about 5-10 times a day, which I don't think is all that rude.

The rudeness comes out when someone tells me they're affiliated with my internet/phone carrier, or my payroll software company, or something like that and I ask immediately, "is this a sales call?" and get told "no". So, then I have to listen to make sure there's no change in my contracts or services, which is almost never what it's about -- instead, it's some sales company with a target marketing list trying to push a "free" service that isn't ultimately free at all. I hate those assholes; I was a rude bitch before hanging up on one of them less than an hour ago.

I can't remember the last time I was rude to someone's face; like sally and crash, that's only happened when someone was rude to me first.
