Sure, they're just doing their job. But when I have to say "No thanks, I'm not interested" more than once, that's when I start getting annoyed.
More reasons I hate telemarketers:
1 - I rent an apartment. I do NOT need a new roof!
2 - If I wanted to switch to your long-distance service, I would call you and do it myself. You calling me first is NOT going to make it more likely that I will purchase your service. In fact, I cancelled your service b/c of poor customer service. I see that hasn't changed.
3 - Pronounce my name right from the beginning, and maybe I won't snap at you after I have to say "No thank you" for the fifteenth time.
4 - Why must they always call just when I sit down to eat dinner? Usually that's the first moment of peace I've had after I've worked all day, stopped at the grocery store, completed various other errands, and slaved over the stove. As I'm putting that first bite into my mouth, I don't appreciate having to put down my fork to get up to answer the phone and be solicited.
5 - I get really irritated when you call me at 3 am by accident and your computer system beeps at me.
6 - You are soliciting me. Why do you have the attitude that I owe you anything, let alone my money?
