Default Telemarketer

Got a call from a telemarketer. Shes trying to sell me Cialis, so I decide to waste her time.

First I ask her what Cialis is, she tells me its for 'male functioning.' I ask male functioning? Like how? Made her explain it

Then I ask her about the pricing for 10, 20, 30... 100. We settle on 100. I start haggling with her. She wont touch the price so I ask her to go talk to her supervisor. She comes back with an offer for more pills at the same price. I say ok.

I tell her my wallet is in my car, so to please hold while I go get it. I put the phone down and made some spaghetti.

She hangs up eventually and calls back. Ive finished eating by now. I act offended and ask why she hung up on me. She apologizes, I eventually accept. I ask her to hold again while I get my wallet. She does, and I hit mute and watch some TV.

She hangs up, and calls back. I tell her that Ive been wasting her time. I told her that Ive asked to be taken off the calling list numerous times to no avail. And that I will be wasting the next persons time too.

I use a white list for email. For cell, if I don't recognize the number I don't pick up, and even then only if I have the time.

I have two numbers that call every other day even though I've only picked up once. I've asked to remove me and they both still call.

Depending on your phone and provider, I think you can have numbers blocked completely so they won't even go through.

They usually call from different or even slightly different numbers
