What's the meanest thing you have said to/heard from a Telemarketer? One told me he would not take my number out of the list and to deal with it. Called me a name and hung up. Of course, I had already cussed him out myself and told him to go fornicate himself.

I have gotten so tired of being angry at telemarketers. It accomplishes nothing and I feel that I have wasted my anger and gotten stressed out for nothing.\n I now have a new way of dealing with telemarketers. FRUSTRATE THEM and it's fun for me. I try to sell them goods and services. I pretend to have Tourrettes Syndrome. I repeat everything they say. I speak in gibberish. I'll act like I'm going to buy the Supreme Package and make them do all the paper work, then hang up and turn the phone off.\n It frustrates them and it's fun for me. Try it, have fun.

That is a telemarketer. I get them showing all 0's or 9's. I answered it after getting the call a few times. They will keep calling. just pick it up and say no and hangup.

Yeah, it sounds bad. He wanted to cut out quick, and that's good. You don't want him hanging around just to be polite, do you? The fact that he hasn't called yet, doesn't mean anything.. guys are not usually phone hounds like women are, but not coming in was the clincher.

A friend of my secretary did something VERY funny:\n\nHe was on a train with a man who insisted on speaking very loudly on his cellphone. While on the phone, he spoke with his wife, his daughter, and his internet service provider. So, her friend began writing...first, he wrote down the man's wife's name. Then when he called his daughter, he wrote her name down. Then he called his Internet service provider, and in the course of the conversation, the man (loudly) divulged his name, home address, and screen name.\n\nSo a few days later, the man would have received a post card in the mail that said..."Your name is (blank), your wife's name is (blank), your daughter is (blank), and your AOL screen name is (blank). Next time be considerate of others while talking on your cell phone on the train. Have a nice day.

Probably won't happen even if you try.  Privacy laws won't let you have the name and if you report it to the cell provider, they'll just pass it on to the authorities (if it's a harassing call).

ANGER MANAGEMENT 101\n\nWhen you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know -- take it out on someone you don't know. \n\nI was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I had forgotten to make. I found the number and dialed it. \n\nA man answered, saying, "Hello." \n\nI politely said, "Could I please speak with Robin Carter?" \n\nSuddenly, the phone was slammed down on me. \nI couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. \nI realized I had called the wrong number. I tracked down Robin's correct number and called her. I had accidentally transposed the last two digits of her phone number. \n\nAfter hanging up with her, I decided to call the 'wrong' number again. \n\nWhen the same guy answered the phone, I yelled, "You're an a_s_s_hole!" and hung up. \n\nI wrote his number down with the word 'asshole' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. \n\nEvery couple of weeks,when I was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up and yell, "You're an a_s_s_hole!" \nIt always cheered me up. \n\nWhen Caller ID came to our area, I thought my therapeutic 'a_s_s_hole' calling would have to stop. \n\nSo, I called his number and said, "Hi, this is John Smith from the Telephone Company. I'm just calling to see if you're familiar with the Caller ID program?" \n\nHe yelled, "NO!" and slammed the phone down. \n\nI quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're an a_s_s_hole!" \n\nOne day I was at the store, getting ready to pull into a parking spot. \nSome guy in a black BMW cut me off and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for... I hit the horn and yelled that I had been waiting for that spot. \n\nThe idiot ignored me. \n\nI noticed a "For Sale" sign in his car window, so, I wrote down his number. \n\nA couple of days later, right after calling the first a_s_s_hole ( I had his number on speed dial), I thought I had better call the BMW a_s_s_hole, too. \n\nI said, "Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?" \n\n"Yes, it is." \n\n"Can you tell me where I can see it?" \n\n"Yes, I live at 1802 West 34th Street. It's a yellow house, and the car's parked right out in front." \n\n"What's your name?", I asked. \n\n"My name is Don Hansen," he said. \n\n"When's a good time to catch you, Don?" \n\n"I'm home every evening after five." \n\n"Listen, Don, can I tell you something?" \n\n"Yes?" \n\n"Don, you're an a_s_s_hole." \n\nThen I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial, too. \n\nNow, when I had a problem, I had two a_s_s_holes to call. \n\nBut after several months of calling them, it wasn't as enjoyable as it used to be. \n\nSo, I came up with an idea. I called Asshole #1. \n\n"Hello." \n\n"You're an a_s_s_hole!" (But I didn't hang up.) \n\n"Are you still there?" he asked. \n\n"Yeah," I said. \n\n"Stop calling me," he screamed. \n\n"Make me," I said. \n\n"Who are you?" he asked. \n\n"My name is Don Hansen..." \n\n"Yeah? Where do you live?" \n\n"Asshole, I live at 1802 West 34th Street, a yellow house, with my black Beamer parked in front." \n\nHe said, "I'm coming over right now, Don. And you had better start saying your prayers." \n\nI said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, a_s_s_hole." \n\nThen I called A_s_s_hole #2. \n\n"Hello?" he said. \n\n"Hello, a_s_s_hole," I said. \n\nHe yelled, "If I ever find out who you are...!" \n\n"You'll what?" I said. \n\n"I'll kick your a_s_s," he exclaimed. \n\nI answered, "Well, a_s_s_hole, here's your chance. I'm

I thought you were going to be mean to someone else not yourself.  Whatever floats your boat man.  Just make sure you call 911 immediately. Doesn't sound like you are going to have a good end result.

Catching my 12 year old brother having phone sex...\nHe called a hotline and they actually talked to him and toyed with his foolishly young mind..

Maybe he was just being sarcastic or funny? Or he thought you'd be flattered?\n\nI'm a guy and I'll tell you: either A) He didn't mean it or B) He lost his phone with your number and the text message was never received (this didn't happen - I'm just trying to save your feelings here. See A)

who cares what she says, shes just upset that she got busted giving out the wrong phone number twice to the same person.  Next time you see her, pretend that you are sorry and tell her to give you a call later and give her this number 310-217-7638 it a number for the rejection hotline and its hilarious to listen to also but a major slam for the person who gets it. and see what her reaction is the next time you see her.

I used to do this, I don't anymore. I was proud once to be called the dip queen, I am sure you know that dips are new customers. What worked for me was the fact that I did not come across as a telemarketer... If you do that, then most people will get negative right off.... I started with hey how are you? Then I listened (I didn't just run off with the mouth), people like to be listened to. I would respond to what they said, and then mention the deal... I would say something like (to bring them off guard)... oh well guess what? You may get angry at first, when I tell you this, but I have something I need to tell you, I am one of those annoying telemarketers. Yeah I remember when I used to get mad at them. They would laugh, and say something like okay, what's your spill? It worked for me... I hope it helps. Oh, and remember, you may still get hung up on allot, but don't think about it, just go straight to the next one. The more people you call, the better your chances are.

Does it strike you as odd that he doesn't call all day and then shortly after you call him this evening then he calls? My guess would be that he DID have his phone, could see it was you calling, is somewhere doing something he would rather be doing than talking to you and so he used someone else's phone to call you and make up a story about not having his phone with him.

Put a block on your phone against that number.  What he is doing is illegal and frightening.  DON'T PUT UP WITH IT!!!

I worked at wendys this time last year for some extra cash when the kids were in bed and hubby was done with work. We had this really nice lady from ehtiopia working there ( her 3rd job no less ) she asked this guy if he wanted a combo ( was cheaper ) he yelled, DID I SAY I wanted a combo ? He kept yelling and I was over in the drive thru and I heard him and went over there ( the manager was doing something else of course )\n I was like sir is there a problem. He starts raving like I didnt say I wanted a combo and on and on ( the dining room was packed! )\n Finally after about 1 minute or 2, he stopped yelling and said "What do you think about that ? "\n I politely smiled at him and said, " dang mr, if this food wont give yiou a heart attack your ugly attitude will."\nEVeryone in line started laughing, hes screaming he wants my manager and my name, I said my name was juanita( it isnt,,lol )\n The manager came over and said sir we don't want your business and please leave. \n He called and made a big stink but you know what, that ethiopan woman was JUST DOING what she was trained to do. As my pastor says, some people have to act like that cause its the only power they have in their life.\n\n I gave my friend a hug and told her to chin up cause she was really upset.
