Once when the salesman asked me if I was the woman of the house, I lied and said no(thinking I'd get him off the phone), and then he started drilling me about why I was there and did the woman of the house know I was there and was I with her husband. I finally had to tell him it was none of his business and I ended up having to hang up on him because he wouldn't give it up!suzicatehttp://suzicate.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3677172151591739382.post-20362573374391834352010-06-02T15:42:51.866-07:002010-06-02T15:42:51.866-07:00I had a "family film" company call me no...I had a "family film" company call me not long ago to try to sell me a film and when I told them all my kids were grown they proceeded to try to tell me I owed them money but could tell me how much or what film I supposedly ordered. weird....

Sounds like you had a bit of a good time with the little mouse dropped in your cage. <br><br>Here's what I do when it's a recorded call and they want me to give information at the end so they can call me back. I wait for the beep and tell them how these kinds of calls are causing ruin to our society. I go all out and bring out some giant words and tell them that this form of de-personalization is killing America.

I am rude...to the point where tim has actually gotten angry with me. His point is that is their job and why am I so rude as to hang up on them. my response is always the same...they won't shut up long enough for me to be polite and tell them kindly I am not interested. Again..invest in Caller ID...it is the best defense against the telemarketer!!!DrSoosiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04445723747109775244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3677172151591739382.post-76157516725803244482010-06-01T22:04:30.865-07:002010-06-01T22:04:30.865-07:00IF I answer the phone, because I don't know it...IF I answer the phone, because I don't know it a telemarketer, I immediately say I'm not interested, thank you, click.
