what to do when telemarketers bug you

I've been getting the same telemarketer call for two months now and I'm running out of ideas on how to mess with them. I've hung up on them, cursed them out, my roommate even declared me dead to them over the phone.....and they still call. My phone is directly next to the computer so the next time they call I'm gonna hold it up to the speaker and rickroll them, or play that elektronik supersonik song, just for the fuck of it.

And even still, they'll call back. Suggestions?

tom and jerry theme song
cowboy bebop - tank!
oingo bingo - weird science
parliment - atmoic dog
dbz - cha-la, head cha-la song

That doesnt work, Ive worked as a telemarketing caller, we just pretend that will do something and pass the call onto the database again with a flag that "shouldnt" make it surface again.





But it does.

I worked as a telemarketer for MDA for like a week. If we get no answer or voice mail it was our job to follow up every other half hour until someone answered the phone. If no one answered by the end of the day the numbers would recycle over to tomorrow, so someone else would pick up where I left off and bother them some more. I quit at the end of the week, couldn't bring myself to do that kind of work.

How do you think they get your # Global Moderators check your IP and cookies and give it to telemarkters. Lol

We also get access to your SSN >:)

Best part on our database was that no number was considered "done with", they would just go back to the end of the cycle to be used up again as soon as the others had been checked.EVEN those that were made sales to.

Sounds just about as assbackwards as MDA - they made us follow up on disconnects, just incase a new business popped up and used the old number.

Only time it was considered okay to disconnect was when sexual propositions were being made from the other side, and even then they insisted you to be as nice as possible to the person propositioning you to go out later on for a fuck.

Oh yeah, and also do monologues from Team Fortress 2 "Meet the Team" videos, preferably the ones for The Soldier, The Sniper, or The Scout.

No, you'd need to speak in Japanese for that and know enough vocabulary to talk about "comfort women"

My hardline phone will be disconnected within a matter of weeks (too many bills piling up, rather stick with the cell). I want to fuck with them some more before termination.
