!! rEg@rdInG TeLeMarKet33rs !!

*ring ring* I pick up the fone.
"Hello this is XXXX from XXXX i would like to do a short suvery regarding....."
*bang* slams down the fone.

Lol

This is how i would respond to telemarketeers who calls mi non stop in the beginning. I juz find them so irritating. Why cant they juz gif us some peace? Haha. This is what i felt abt these people who sells televisions in the market - the telemarketeers (lol? -_-")

Anyone ever experience how it feels like to haf telemarketeers calling you all the time?

Well, i like to share something wif u guys dat mayub might change ur attitude towards these pple.. well, it certainly changed mine.

My gf found a part time job as a ........................... telemarketeer. Yes, not the job i intended her to get but.. its only on a temp basis.. 3weeks. so i encouraged her to go ahead since she was having her hols. Well, telemarketeers do juz call u up for the sake of calling and waiting for time to pass. A telemarketeer can actualli be quite a tough job.

Well, my gf is being paid not by the hour, but by the no. of surveys completed. Each survey usually takes up to 10mins.. 15mins if the caller is a hard one to tackle and if he/she asks alot of qn regarding the survey. Now dats the hard part. On many occasions, she had been on the "receving" end of the caller, having the caller to slam down the phone on her (which i truely regret wad i did last tiem) and also scolding her for wasting their time (thankfully i didnt scold the telemarketeer so im not guilty of that). She feels hurt most of the time when someone does that to her.. As she works only 4 hours a day (which is quite little) she as to complete as much survey as possible in such a short time frame.

Having seeing my gf going through all these, i hope this post can reach out to you guys out there. Next time, u receive a call from a telemarketeer, this is wad u shld do..

1. Ask if u r celestine .. (haha j/k)

Back to a serious note, juz be nice to the person cos you never noe if u r going to make his/her day, or ... break it. Spare juz 10mins of ur time.. im quite sure 10mins its ok right?

At the end of the day. Dun treat telemarketeers like animals.... they are humans too, they haf emotions, dun hurt them.

P.S. I do not work for the Telemarketeers Union For Civil Rights!
