Telemarketers, Courtesy Calls, and Whatnot

I frickin' rule.

I just got a call, Some guy from "NRC group" or something like that. He told me he wanted to interview a member of my household aged 18-50.

I told him that only 9-year-olds lived here.

He said "........oh............. ok. Sorry." and hung up.

I cackled like a hyena.XD XD XD

anyone experience this?

some company have a policy were they can't hang up first so i told the guy i was getting my parents and left him on hold for 45 minutes, when i went back to check if he was still there he answered and i told him that they just went out shopping.

eh, its there job, you can at least prank them with a soundboard... they get payed you know, better than most people actualy

heh thats a good one actually. In his perspective, It doesnt hurt, its his job just to wait for you. everything is recorded as well so he cant just hang up and he cant be fired for waiting because you told him to wait as well (as a potential sale).. so technically he gets paid waiting for nothing. Sometimes I dunno if thats a good job or not. O_o
