Yes the job sucks and because I feel their pain I was nice to them for a while. The problem is they prey on nice people. It is the nice guy you agrees to buy a product he dosent want just so the telemarketer can put a point in his sales column. You can not be nice to a telemarketer and believe me I have tried. If you say I have never bought somthing over the phone and I assure you I never will so you are wasting your time with me only gets them to try and sell to you again. If you are really sadistic or if the telemarketer is expecially annoying I have the very best way to get them. When you are a telemarketer you have to read pages and pages of information to the would be sale(you are monitored to make sure you do) unless the customer says no then you can skip to the next scripted response. If you really want to piss a telemarketer off then you should let him go through the entire process, let him talk himself horse, ask every question you can think of and by the end of his day he will feel as if he has gargled with razor blades. Oh and you are tempting the fates saying you will buy something and not giving them your credit card number. Most of the time they already have it and a unscrupulous or pissed off telemarketer can sign you up for a item and you wont even know about it until the bill comes through in a few months. Think of the pain of the butt that would be having to call up the company and sit on hold to talk to a telemarketer:)) I also worked as a Telemarketer for about 4 months.

I set down the phone, picked up a pair of heavy metal bush trimmers, and dropped them on my wooden floor. I then shouted, "AGH! I'VE BEEN SHOT," and left the phone sitting there.

My cousin was over the night so like an hour later we called the number and starting asking the guy, "We've been looking all over for Yankees tickets, we really want to get some. Do you know where we can get anything?? That got him off the phone pretty fast.

If a telemarketer is pissed of because ur mean to them he will allways get the last laugh! If someone was mean to me i would simply hit the button on the computer that calls them back in 5 minutes or the next day. 99.9% of the time i didnt get caught and even when it did it was worth it. Ever wondered why a telemarketer is so dumb? Its because hes taking the piss out of you and he has you on loudspeaker so his mates can have a giggle to. I would get people to repeat themselves 5 times and then act like i understood it, then i would repeat what they say and ask if thats right. I got heaps of peoples names and numbers that i harrass after having a few beers. All people who have annoyed me. If you think what you read here is funny spend 5 minutes with me on the phone and i will give you a reason to laugh. You get good at it being a telemarketer. So if you get a ridiculous amount of calls from telemarketers maybe you need to rethink your strategy on how to deal with them. Chances are many of them have hit that "callback" button on there computer for you countless times. I never did any of this to people who didnt piss me off first The best way to get rid of them is # "Sorry mate you have the wrong number" be nice about it "Have a good day" or #If you have one where they dont ask for a name get on the do not call register because they wont be legally alowed to call you And with what starfire said. Dont ever give them the wrong credit card number because thats fraud and if the card goes through your in alot of trouble because they will debit someone elses account and chances are mr ganesh in india has a recording of you giving that number and you could be in big trouble Yeah have been telemarketer for a bloody long time and worked some real C#nt jobs.

I started screaming at a '' pet penguin named percivil'' , and telling him if he didn't quit pecking at the bodys in the freezer that i would chop him up ''just like i did my parents''. The man screamed and told his co-worker in the background what i had said and he sounded like he was about to cry. [ lol ] he told me he would call back at a more conveinient time and i told him i would get his number off of caller id and call him back when i had finished the penguin. I havn't had a telemarketer call me since. that was a year ago. when i get calls from telemarketers i try to be nice and hear them out but when this one guy caught me on a bad day i gave it to him.
