telemarketer time



Maybe some of you are having this problem (share it with us). Now that I am home more than ever, I have noticed the telemarketers calls more than ever.

If you don't happen to be on Dreamweaver's email, you probably have not heard this great prank played on a telemarketer. I think it's real, but either way it's listening to it is a great laugh. If you don't have her email address let me know I pass your request to her.

So I checked the Do Not Call list thing (click here). To my surprise my number was not registered - well now it is. Found out it's good for 5 years. But to be honest I don't know if it really works. Does anyone know how to file a complaint for this? Will people bother to file a complaint?

So while I suggest registering, I find another approach better. Waste their time. Have some fun with them at their expense. I told one nice sounding young lady just yesterday that she should consider another job - some other field of work. She actually talked about the idea. Told another to send me a contribution since I was out of work, he wouldn't take my address.

What I would like to do is get a telemarketer on a three way call with someone. We could discuss what they are pushing. I suspect they might hangup if you put them on hold.

Here's a the funny site (I think this is it anyway) that the telemarketer prank came from.
