yeah, and when you tell them you don't have time they go: when do you got time then? how about: NEVER!? :tolerance: or when they ask: am I bothering you know? how about YES! :bonk:
or when they call during DINNER TIME, and ramble on and on and on about their whole sales pitch, which is a crock of sh*t anyways, i just sometimes hang up on them, NO MEANS NO!!, it's like they can't hear and keep talking.... :doh: :beaten:
ITA. Then sometimes they get rude as you're trying to tell them you're not interested. As if being rude is going to make you buy their stuff.

all the better to just hang up in the middle of their BS. :beaten: :bonk:
I admit I'm one of those who calls #s I don't recognize.....
Though sometime when I do that, it happens to be my one of my friends who got my # from another friend :beaten:
Either that or I happen to call one of my brother's friend who used their cell phone.....
But bout those damn phone calls. I hate it when people call you the first time and you say that the person they are looking for "doesn't use this # anymore" and they still call you back :grumble:
had one dude that called the house every so often, in Spanish, and ask for some guy name jose or something, i would say no comprende, and he would ramble on and on, and ....then i would hang it up. Another time same dude called, and then gave the phone over to his friend who actually spoke a few words in english, i yelled back, WRONG NUMBER MAN!, and hung up. You think by now, they would get the message....Right....... :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh:

I always say to telemarketers immediately that "I am on a business call is this something important?"

My sister would always get random voicemails on her cell for someone named Juan and they were kinda scary cuz they were things like "Juan, we need all your paperwork by the 25th, its urgent!" or "I've been calling you all day, it's about your case!"
..but the thing is, to leave a voicemail, you have to sit there and listen to her silly message telling you she's not there, she even states her name which is clearly NOT Juan.
