I just got a call no more than 2 minutes ago. Said my usual hello, and there was a two minute pause. Not good. Either bad connection, or more than likley a telemarketer. Turned out to be the latter. Calling from the local newspaper, and probably getting me to get a subscription. So, I just hung up.
I picked up, and strange thing is, they where still on the phone. Took two seconds for thep hone to register the hang up or something.
Anyway, once theyt where gone, called my mother just to make sure she wasn't expecting a call, and got berated for being 'so rude'. Heh, funny thing is, the topic came up at our annual pizza night at my grandparents house last week. This week was a little different, because my grandfthers brother(Or is it my mothers uncle), was also there. He and I where the only one who agreed that we should just hang up on these people. It was us against them, heh. Funny thing is, my mother dosn't mind him(A former WW2 soldier to boot) doing it .
So, my question here is, how many people here just hang up on those peopel, and how many listen to their schpeil?
