2020-07-02 at 1:54 AM UTC in Would you kill a telemarketer/phone scammer if you knew you'd get away with it?One time I had this dude from Ottawa on the line. And I'm trying to sell him I think a Hoover Turbomaster U5096 it was. Best vacuum around. Top of the line.
Then I got a ringer on line two, a SUSIE on line three, and a woman from the Bronx asking for a rain check on Mackie's leather bottoms which had been wiped from the face of the earth like the dinosaurs for the last 4 months, but I wasn't about to tell her that. When you get a hook in a lady you don't just let the reel go.
I'm talking to the dude from Ottawa when I get another ringer on line four, then one on line five. Line six was blue and I knew I was edging it with these calls. I had to make the sale quick.
I asked the man what he cares more about, his kids or his carpet? He hung up on me. I didn't make the sale. Figures.
I don't remember why I started writing this story but damn I'm glad I got out of that industry. -

Originally posted by mmQ Just 4. Like I said I was just a kid. With having no prior experience they just start everyone off on the 4-line. I think we had a one-week trial period that was just a single-line but then 4. Most everyone there longer than 6 months was on the 6-line.
Wow lucky. I did start with the 4-line but 3 months in they handed us a 6-line and more or less said "here, have at it." Crazy. Some of the 6 month dudes were even running an 8-line but I got out of that industry before it got to that. Shit's bad mojo. -

We just need people who won't fuck with each other's stuff. Fona is really the only one who does. Had no problems playing with rabbit, scron, or HTS. We made a nice little town. Then Fona came and took a shit on the highest mountain in the village, relocated homes, and ransacked the palace. -

Did you see him do it?
There's a waterfall inside.
He asked me which house was mine and when I got back from exploring that's what I found. I'm pretty sure it's him considering stuff only started getting fucked with once Fona joined, and he has a known history of using waterfalls to grief. -
2020-07-02 at 1:05 AM UTC in Super NIS Minecraft Server 2 TurboWelp, Fona griefed my house. Good fucking job inviting him guys. I'm done.

I worked as a telemarketer in the evening while I was going to Tech School. You only have one line. How are you supposed to keep two conversations going at once? That is a recipe for failure. It's very difficult getting someone to talk to you on this type of call much less telling them to wait while you talk on the other line.
By the way, I was relatively successful at it. The business was located in my town and nobody wanted to deal with the locals because the other telemarketers thought they were too difficult. I would veer off script telling them that we were local and located by the Newport bridge and the Soccer Dome. That usually would keep them from hanging up on me. I, working just part time, was even awarded the "Communicator Of The Month" award once.
Once I even talked to the father of a gal who dated one of my high school classmates and told him I thought they would end up getting married. He surprised the hell out of me when he responded "Over my dead body!"
Another time I called the number of an apartment. She obviously wasn't going to buy any vinyl clad aluminum siding. But…I did get a date out of the deal as well as my horn scraped.
You must not have been a good telemarketer then. Most are given multiple lines. -
