Oh My Farking Gawd I have a serious case of the giggles... I am being stalked by a telemarketer with a foul mouth and a bad attitude. So why Am I Laughing?????
The phone rings and the Offspring dithers and hands the phone to me..
( he knows the protocol we put telemarketers on hold here..)
Salesman: Hello Madam you have been selected for a free mobile phone
Me: No I am sorry I am not interested, thankyou, goodbye...click
ring ring ring
The offspring answers again
Salesman:Goddammit I am trying to give you free phone and you are hanging up
Offspring: Hangs up.
ring ring ring
Salesman: I am being fucking pissed off. I am trying to give you a fucking good phone
and you are fucking hanging up on me .
Me: Giggles, loudly (I couldn't help myself)
Salesman: Why are you finding this funny.It is a fucking good phone Godammit
Me: Giggling loudly and doing a bad salesman impersonation walks away from the phone to get another beer...
Leaving the salesman hanging as it was...

Too funny - golly they're persistent buggers! I like the one where you ask them for their home number so you can call them just as they are about to eat... ;)
Absolutely! What Meg says!
Ha ha ha ha! What accent would you have used?
meg: The rule here is that whoever answers the phone, politely says I will just get mum/dad and then walk away.. leaving them on hold.
I even say that..lol they seem to stop ringing after a while..
tiff: mmm a very bad Indian accent
I signed up for the do not call thingy as well *sigh* these characters musn't be part of it..
Too funny that he kept calling you back!
well seeming my parnter is german.. it works very well in our house..
hehe..
if they ring he starts talking to them in german and they soon hang up lol..
or we do what you and leave them on hold.. lol
Hehehe, that's brightened my morning reading that! I had soooo many telemarketers call us at work this past week...including someone calling about our Telstra account. We only have one, that's my father's mobile. She wanted to talk to the owner (Dad or Mum) and I asked her if it was a sales call. No, no, this is a general call.
Told Dad what she said but that I thought it was a sales call...and of course it was. Everyone wanting to get bigger commissions before Christmas...
Back in the day of door-to-door salesmen, my father beat one up who wouldn't take his foot out of the door.
Crazy bahstid. But he wasn't bothered again. Guess word got around.
Looky at all your comments!
Bad attitude indeed, you should have let Dad talk to him.
High five there Kim.
We hates the telemarketers dont we?
