While I can’t stand telemarketeers, the worst kind of telemarketing types are the ‘automated ones’: you know the one that starts with telling you ‘how sorry they are calling at this inconvenient time’ and then tell you to ‘press 1 or 2 to find out what deals they have for you’.
I mean, how dare they? What’s the point? I’d like to talk to real people and tell them ‘No thank you very much’. I’d like to say ‘No not now’ and slam the phone. I mean, that’s at least my right if you call me and I decide that I really don’t appreciate your message, advertisement or ‘grand deal’ because not only you called at an inconvenient time: Also because your grand deal is shoved and pushed on me.
And you know what? If you send an automated message, I’ll start ignoring your stores right off the bat. You’re first, Leon’s.
