The phone is not my own and the landlord has chopped and changed suppliers.

The last one which he is with at the moment went and registered the number
with the thing that says 'Don't Phone To Sell'.......

That is a pretty clever move on their part.....

As I explained to the last Indian Girly that phoned.

"Excuse me, if you check the relevant authority then you will find that this
number is whitelisted for cold calling"

"Mingle mingle Sir, Your number is on our database"

"That is not my problem, you should check the relevant database and update
your records. At the moment you are commiting and offence by calling this
number and offering unsolicited services"

Hey, I just sent 400 spams by hand to promote my E-Bay sale......



Genome, You are just so polite ;-)

I take the opportunity to cuss them out severely ;-)

Overheard once as I was sitting in the dining room of the house I shared with my cousin when we were going to college:


(ring ring ring)

"Hello?"...

"Well, I'm not sure that it's just cleaning they need."...

"Uh huh.  Uh huh.  No, we really don't need carpet cleaning."...

"No, seriously man, we don't need our carpets cleaned -- hey! Do you really like your job? I mean, you're always calling people who don't want to talk to you; I bet they can be pretty rude."

"Uh huh.  Yea, I know how that goes.  Uh huh.  Yea, pretty bad."

"I bet your boss is an ***, too."

"Yea? (laughter)".

"And you don't get to take breaks"...

"Probably dings you when you go take a pee"...

"Yea, I'd get pissed, to"...

"Wow.  Hey!  Maybe you should just quit!"

"No!  I mean it!"

"No, you don't have to do that! You're not going to come back, right? You could just hang up and walk out right now! Yes! Tell him off on your way out! Yes! Sure! Wow! Go for it, man! Hey, you have a good one to."

(hang up; laughter)

"Whoa; I think he's really going to quit."
