This is why I stopped answering phones for companies
http://crazytelemarketer.ytmnd.com/

It's about 8 minutes long, but really worth a listen.

If you've ever worked in customer service in ANY capacity, I'm sure you've dealt with customers who were 1/100th of this woman.

If you've ever wondered why customer service people are sometimes testy, this may explain why.

God. I've worked in so many jobs where my desk phone was the first to ring when someone called the company. Didn't matter if I was who they were looking for (sales) or not. You answer the phone, you get this woman, and all of her satan spawn that love nothing more than to harass people who have the godforsaken job of answering the telephone

:shudder:

4. Gorgyles!! Pfy-fiks!!!!
In Jay-zuz name I PRAY

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I think they're of close relation. I love the nonsensical screaming fits and how she (the caller, not Gorgyle woman) claims to have had a burst appendix or whatever because of the neverending phone calls.

Here's a clue:

stop
answering
the
fucking
phone

5. Equating telemarketing calls with rape
is just beyond the pale, in my opinion. That caller needs psychiatric help.

7. Wow - I think that woman should get arrested.
And I think she has some "issues".

I've encountered people like this woman many times on the subway in NYC, with the whole kind of logic of "My house was broken into, so it's the fault of telemarketers, and I have the power to make sure they get their taxes audited every year for the rest of their life because my appendix burst because of them."

10. Yeah, a little bit of magical thinking going on there.
She must watch too many soap operas and follow them with Fox news.
