Don’t call me; I’ll call you:
I got a
call from a telemarketer last week, wanting me to bundle all my services with
his cable company. We’re registered with No Call, but since we use one of his
services, he’s allowed to call and annoy us. First, he asked me how I was, and
told me his name was Kevin. I told him nicely that our internet is with the
phone company and will stay there because the phone doesn’t go out. It hasn’t
gone out in over 36 years, whereas the cable goes out every few months. He
said, “Sir, our cable never goes out.” I used an expletive,(something about
bull droppings) and he kept on talking and repeating that his cable never has
gone out. I said, “Kevin, didn’t you hear me just say @**&!!?” He said he
heard me the first time, and that I should watch my language. I said, “Kevin,
there are seven words that you can’t say on television, but none that you can’t
say on the telephone. This is my phone and my language. If you don’t like it
then you can get off.”
I’ve got to
give old Kevin credit. He was still selling when I turned off the phone.
