No Call List? Yeah, right.

Posted on September 17, 2006 By Tom No Comments on No Call List? Yeah, right.
Rants

I’ve gotten about five of these calls this weekend.  The first couple of calls I just hung up on them.  Then I began to question them.  "How did you get this number."  "Don’t you know we’re on the No Call List?"  The response has been that it was a research call, and not a sales call.  My response was, "Any you think this is any less annoying than a sales call?  Take me off your damn list!"  Then I would hang up.

I know that I’m taking out my frustration on some poor schmuck who got stuck with a minimum wage "Work from Home" job.  However they are the only contact that I have with that company, so if I’m going to express my opinion, they’re going to bear the brunt of it.  Unfortunately for them, it isn’t the type of opinion their research requires.
