Lobotomy Monotony
TELEMARKETING | WORKING | JUNE 9, 2014
(In spite of the fact that I have a cell-phone, I get a ton of telemarketing calls. I always ask them not to call back, but they continue.)
Telemarketer: “Hello, I’m calling from [Law Firm] about a class-action lawsuit. Have you recently had a surgery you needed denied?”
Me: “You know it’s illegal for lawyers to solicit services, right?”
Telemarketer: “But, ma’am, isn’t there any surgery you need but haven’t been able to get approved by your insurance?”
Me: “Actually, now that I think about it, I really could use a lobotomy and a boob job.”
Telemarketer: “Excellent! At [Law Firm] we specialize in getting you services you need. So about your lobotomy—”
Me: “Hey, think about what I said.”
Telemarketer: “You said you needed a lobotomy?”
Me: “Sounds like you had one if you don’t know what it is…”
Telemarketer: “…”
Me: “Think about it.”
Telemarketer: “F*** you, b****!”
Me: “STOP CALLING ME!”
(He hung up, and then started calling me from his PERSONAL cell to abuse me… until I turned his number over to the police. I have yet to be bothered by a telemarketer since!)
