I am a telemarketer. It really makes me smile when I think that telemarketing is a direct result of American capitalism. Listening to people whine and complain about how they receive so many calls. They don't realize that in a consumer driven society, telephone marketing is a necessary evil.For eight hours a day I call people, day in and day out, with a half an hour lunch break. When people answer the phone and scream obscenities at me and then proceed to hang up (even if they ask to be put on the do not call list), I like to code their number into the computer so they get a call every ten minutes. Then I secretly hope that the next call they receive will be the one that gives them an anuerysm or stroke, and that they fall to their knees then the floor in a state of paralysis with the phone still clutched firmly in their hands. Then, unable to reach the receiver to dial 911 they slowly die accepting my 'telemarketing call' which ironically is life insurance, then tell them they did not qualify, hang up on them, and let them die alone, with the knowledge that their loves ones won't be their to comfort them. Sometimes I'll talk with a person who is so polite courteous and enthusiastic that my entire day changes and the next obscene, narrow minded shallow end of the gene pool uneducated backwater ill mannered invertebrate I talk to doesn't upset me.
