podlingSo I'm sitting here all innocent-like and I get this random call from a blocked number. It's a telemarketer! (One of my first since going on the No Call list or whatever that thing is) This is what went on between us...
Dude: I'm calling from (blah, wherever, who can remember) and the previous resident of your condo used our services, did she tell you about us?
Me: Um, that was two years ago, how would I remember that?
Dude: Right, well, we spray lawns and bushes for insects.
Me: I live in a condo.
Dude: We do those too! It's still a useful service.
Me: If that was the case, then wouldn't you need to contact the landscapers, you know, the people who actually maintain those areas?
(Click)
Me: Hello? Are you there? Uh! He hung up on me!
What's really disappointing here is that I didn't get to ask him if he was looking to spray my houseplants. Damn him and his unlisted number!
