Gah!

Today is going to be a rant about Telemarketers. I'm sitting at home minding my own business, and I get a phone call. I look and it's a local number, so I answer it.

"Hello this is some dumbwit calling from some Internet company. Would you like to switch to our crappy highspeed DSL from your totally awesome highspeed Cable Internet?"

"No, I'm happy with what I have."

"But it's a good deal at $25 a month."

"I'm paying $20 right now."

"Oh, are you sure you don't want to switch."

"Uh...yeah. Besides, your service doesn't work properly in my area."

"It does now. Come on switch. You know you want to."

"No, I really don't. Bye now."

Gah! I understand. I've been there. I was a telemarketer for a while. They're just trying to do their job and make a few bucks. When I tell you the reasons for now wanting to switch, say okay and move on. Yeah, they have to push a little. But when the service you're offering me doesn't even work because we're too far from the hub, trying to sell me on it is a waste of your time and mine.

Bleh.

Peace, love and fluffy bunnies
