Now speak f'ing English. Mad And if you can't speak half assed fluid English maybe don't take a job in telemarketing or anything that has you primarily on the phone. kthxbye.

So frustrating sometimes. Neutral I just spent 15 minutes on a courtsey call to update my FREE Yellowbook listing. You know, business name, addy, phone#. Shoulda took maybe 2 minutes.

AND then he tried to sell me more advertising! I'M NOT INTERESTED, I DON'T WANT ANY!

I got a call from our regional transit agency - a government body, mind you - to take part in research on the trains I take for the agency. They've out-sourced this to India. dunno

Some guy from Midas just tried to sell me some oil change plan that they give out just to students! Such a great deal!

He hands me a card as he's talking; it shows all of the information for the plan. As he's winding through his spiel, he asks where I get my oil changed currently. I tell him I do it myself and watch his face drop. "Oh, well that's probably the best way to go," he says as he yanks the card from my grip. A curt goodbye and he high tails it out of my yard.
