So evidently, people hate telemarketers to call. So WHY do companies still perpetuate this advertising pracitce? OH sure, maybe a few poor suckers will buy this month'* scam, but most just get annoyed and cuss or hang up.
And when one sees it is a telemarketer call, most people won't listen for a second.
Why do telemarketers still exist?
SIDE NOTE - One time this collection place called my house,
COL - "...and how do you plan to take care of this...?"
ME - "I am waiting for H*** to freeze over..."
Ain't heard from them since.

interessant,
I used to do telepestering, and we were selling stupid cable packages.
It was bout the time I mentioned "sex in the city" that some old bat gave me a lecture about how she was raising some wholesome X-tian grand daughter.
I wanted to ask her, "So I guess you wouldn't want to get this in time to see Holyfield pound a few streams of blood out to Tyson'* skull? Or the sexy show "sex in the city"?"
