Duh!!!!!!!!
I had a phone call on Thursday from a well spoken British female,
"Is that Abacus Dahlia Nurseries?" "No. This is Abacus Nurseries, and I grow dahlias." "This is 118 , and we are checking your directory entry" "I don't have a directory entry, I don't open to the public" "Oh yes you do have an entry" "Well I don't want one" "Can I have your name please" "David Hill" "And your address please" "You just told me what it is" "Can I have your email address please" "Why do you want my email address?" "So that we can confirm your directory entry" "But I've just told you I don't want a directory entry" Duh!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I would have put the phone down straight away after "This is 118" But sometimes it is good to listen to their bullsh*t, it gives a certain satisfaction that you CAN listen to it and it is them, the caller who will get frustrated after all the sales techniques have failed.
