I stole the joke from a comedians standup set, not serious

Also their first statement is undeniably factual lol. Indians and Pakistanis making up the loud majority of scam callers ≠ all Indians or Pakistanis are bad

I don't "like" it. But recently I have started to answer them if I'm in the car on Bluetooth with nothing else to do. When they ask how I am today, I put on an exaggerated, chipper voice and say, "it's absolutely terrible, one of the worst days of my life". They inevitably say something like "maybe this ___ offer will make it better" Then I respond, with a high level of shock, "WHAT!? YOU CAN BRING MY GRANDMA BACK" Then sometimes they continue with the pitch. I have also gotten, "I can't see you're not taking this seriously." Amd they end it

It is, and that's why I said that I like when they call me. Are you allergic to fun? They can always hang up if they don't like it

by parisianbrendan 5 days ago

They can always hang up if they don't like it They usually can't or else they'll be fired. You on the other hand can hang up and face no repercussions.

The fact they don't should tell you something about the kind of pressure they're put under to meet quotas so they can keep the worst job in the universe and stay living indoors and whatnot.

I personally prefer my fun to not be at the expense of someone who's done nothing more than try to better their own situation using the means available to them.

by Anonymous 5 days ago

They're actually not allowed to hang up.

Eh, telemarketers I just hang up on. Scammers on the other hand I take free reign to verbally abuse however I want. Behenchod is a good word to know.

Keep in mind a whole lot of these telemarketers are disabled and this is the only type of work that they can do……. not sure this would matter to you though

Nope, not when they don't respect me when I tell them I'm not interested

by parisianbrendan 5 days ago

Nope, not when they don't respect me when I tell them I'm not interested You can hang up the phone and not have to deal with them anymore. It just sounds like you need a hobby if you're spending time farting at random call center workers reading off a script to you.

It's a 2 minute joke out of OP's day, i dont think that means he needs a hobby. That insult is more for people who waste hours a day at something

Then just hang up

by Anonymous 5 days ago

Telemarketers are just doing their job, I just tell them I'm not interested and hang up. Scammers though... I just pass the phone to my husband because I'm curious what will come out of his mouth lol last time he started screaming "oh my god there's blood all over my hands and I cant find the cat" 😅 he didn't even get the whole sentence out before they hung up

I don't like when they call me, but I also make sure they never call again. I've had too many calls from telemarketers while waiting for an important call.

by Anonymous 5 days ago

They're just doing their job. How are they supposed to know you're waiting for an important call?

by Different-Sample269 5 days ago

They aren't. But inconveniencing me on my phone makes it a problem.

by Anonymous 5 days ago

Which is fair, but you can also just hang up.

by Different-Sample269 5 days ago

The one's I've dealt with often become repeat offenders. So I make sure I'm on a do not call list.

I love trolling them. Since I speak several languages, I just speak to them in whichever language they don't understand.
