BillyVance 34 #26 May 2, 2007 Quote I always let them go ALL THE WAY through their spiel (I mean, I'm at work and getting paid for it, so why the hell not), and THEN I tell them I'm not interested. I derive a great amount of entertainment from that. No.... mean is when you let them say their entire piece, THEN you give them a good old BLAST from the hand-held foghorn (first plugging your ears up). I did it the old fashioned way once... I screamed my head off into the receiver.

JustaBill 0 #29 May 2, 2007 There's a comedian named Tom Mabe that has a lot of fun with telemarketers. If you get a chance to hear any of his stuff it's worth the listen.------------------------------------------------ I've done so much, with so little, for so long I'm now expected to do everything with nothing forever Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 34 #30 May 2, 2007 Quote Yeah, I can see how listening to telemarketers ramble on can get annoying . . . to you. The phone flasher kept on flashing around dinner time almost every day and I got annoyed because every time I answered on the TTY, I never got an answer via TTY or relay. It was ALWAYS a voice call. THOSE are the telemarketers. So that day I got fed up, I picked up the receiver and held it up to my hearing aid, and I could hear the fucktard blabbing on and on, and I couldn't understand one word, not that I cared anyway.

ladydyver 0 #31 May 2, 2007 We are on the do not call list but still get them so we lay the phone down until they hang up and then we call them back DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

slacker_chick 0 #32 May 2, 2007 Quote I'd hate to hear what ya'll would say or do to the kid selling newspapers. Haha, thats pretty funny, considering I am at work as a telemarketer selling newspapers at the moment(Not kidding either) !!!After 9 months of this job I think I have heard them all! The funny thing is I cant stand telemarketers either, I just cant beat the comission for how easy the work is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrFreefall383 0 #34 May 3, 2007 Yeah, telemarketers are fun to fuck with. They're so intent on getting their point across, screwing with them can't be helped."If at first you don't succeed... well, so much for skydiving." - aviation cliche Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richards 0 #35 May 3, 2007 Why not just get on the "Do not call list" My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
