you just caught me at the wrong time
Today I received a call from a telemarketer which got me highly riled up. He called at 5:45pm and I was still at work, so I was like,’Can you be quick?’ I’ve always been mostly quite nice to telemarketers except in recent years when friends told me to just hang up on them. So when I got tired of listening to this guy anymore, I just stopped him and said I wasn’t interested and he kept asking me the reason for that and basically I just repeated myself. That’s when it dawn on me that I was seriously and genuinely not interested to listen to whatever he are telling me and he legitimately didn’t get what I was saying! I feel like telling him,’Do you seriously want me to tell you that you suck instead?’ And I really hate it when they keep asking me whether I’m still on the line when I never respond to their rambles. I can’t help it that their accent annoys the hell out of me (hey I’m Singaporean and allowed to be annoyed by foreigners) but really do you want to annoy me some more when I am trying to finish work to get home? It’s like, you’re working but I’m working also. I think next time I’m just going to say,’I'm going to give you 30 seconds to impress me, else I’m going to hang up.’ And if they dare ask me why again when I say that I’m not interested, I am going to tell them cos they suck because they asked for it.
