Cold Callers

[retroyetirigid]

I occasionally get these calls at work, and go in one of two directions with them.
If its busy, I just say "not interested" and hang up.
If its quiet then I'll say "This is a sales line, what bike are you requiring?" or " This is a sales line, who do I send the invoice to for the time you are wasting ?" :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

A mate of mine with a broad scottish accent shouts 'old mac donal had a farm' down the phone until they hand up.

Apparently they get sacked if they end too many calls from their end.

I usually try the thank you but no route (respect for another human etc etc), 2nd occasion say 'seriously, I said I wasn't interested, please f**k off', but on the 3rd occasion in 3 days from the same firm found myself saying 'what part of f**k and off did you not understand'. :roll:

"I'm not trying to sell you anything. Can I ask you just one question?"

"You just did. Bye."

I love wasting their time.

My favourite is when they ask to speak with the home owner, to get all angry and accuse them of being homeownerphobic, 'tis very funny.

My house is a rented property, so that always seems to stop them dead in their tracks!
