The Plague of Phone Sales

Telemarketers. I fucking hate them. They're liars and cheats who want nothing but to hawk their products. I can only halfway be angry at dipshits that do have bills and need to feed their families. A job is a job, right? But the calls that really crawl my ass are the ones that, upon picking up, give you a recording. They want you to call them back, give you a number to call them or give a number to call to be removed. I'm not calling and going through your spill to get taken off your damn list. Why do I answer the phone? Because there are legitimate businesses that show up as toll free call. They were doing it first and then the telemarketing companies got crafty. Now real businesses suffer because no one will pick up the phone. I will pick up and hang up or talk depending on the call. One of the Toll free calls that comes through is about my grandfather's estate, which is in probate. My parents don't answer the phone. Once the calls were about something to do with my father's union and they'd been trying hard to get in touch with my dad. Telemarketers are like roaches. They need to be crushed. They're parasites and usually scams. I got a call once, it said "Hang on for an important medical message." I'm following current health care options and wanted to see what it was about. The next thing that I know, the fucking foghorn for some retarded ass cruise line was blowing in my ear. >.< Telemarketer phone calls. Kill it with fire!
