when the door to doors come round my house I invite them in and then go on about stuff like I'll start saying that I was cheated on or that my cat died and go on and on. eventually, they say they have to leave.

When people try to sell stuff to me by phone I let them rant on and on about the advantages, I ask questions and let them believe they are going to make a sale, only to crush their little hearts at the end (after about half a hour) by telling them I am not acctually interested. This of course is only when Im not acctually doing anything otherwise I just go for the "hello? hello? sorry cant hear u!" and hang up approach.

However I now feel bad for these people as they are only trying to make a living, also I might have to be one of those people soon if I dont get an alternative job.

i give them a hard time...always.
I understand that this must be one of worst ways to make a living 'telemarketing'
but don;t they realise just how annoying it is.

Who came to HDC expecting people to be nice? Seriously, all I see now is “that person was the nicest”, “be nice”, or “that was mean”. Who comes to a horror forum expecting people who would rather be singing love songs and skipping around a field tossing flowers around? Do I expect a shred or intelligence in the members here? Sure. I also HOPE for some contribution and maybe a bit of maturity too. Nice though? Maybe you’re in the wrong place…
