Telemarketers & Customer Service Reps.

So this guy calls & ask for Ryan Smith. I disguised my voice & said this is him. He says Mr. Ryan Smith. I said Yep. He says this doesn't sound like a Mister. I say WHAT You call my house & ask for me & you Sayy I don't sound like me??? He was like Uh...hold the line. So he plays me this audio clip about Obama & how he isn't a US citizen & he is a illegal alien & this committee is out to get him. So this lady gets on the phone & says Miss...what did you think of that? I said Are you going to Impeach him or what? She starts laughing her head off. Then she asks me for a donation of $500. I say I would Love to help you..but the gas prices are outrageous & I can't afford anything. She precedes to tell me a story about having to take this 2nd job because she went to put gas in her van & couldn't fill it up. So then she asks me for a smaller donation. I tell her our country is going to Hell in a hand basket & I don't have a dime. She laughs hysterically & thanks me for making her week. So there you have it. We don't need to be RUDE to telemarketers or hang up on them we can have a good time with them!!!


I got a bill in the mail on a account we had never opened. When I called on it the customer service person told me my name wasn't on the account & that she could only talk to Ryan....f You Tell Me You Can Only Speak to Mr. Smith about My Account...You Know I am Just Going To Put A Towel over the phone & call back & disguise my Voice!!! She politely tells me that she wished she could help me, but because of Hippa regulations she can only speak to Mr. Smith. So I get a towel & cover the receiver & called back. When asked my name I said Ryan Smith. The guy snickered. I was able to get the account closed & resolved. Seriously if I have to stoop to their level I guess I will or at least my Alias Mr. Ryan Smith will.
