Reply #28: why not just ANSWER THE PHONE in the first place...?

[dysfunctional press]

i cannot understand why some people are so scared to pick up a phone call.
if it gets unpleasant- HANG UP.
sheesh.

"Today, after weeks of repeated calls to which we have not responded, my husband finally decided to find out what in the world these people wanted and called them.

Here is the important part: HE PUT A TAPE RECORDER BESIDE THE PHONE BEFORE HE CALLED AND THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT -- HE ADVISED THE PERSON ON THE OTHER END THAT HE WAS TAPING THE CALL. As we expected, the company had to admit that they were not looking for us at all.

:eyes:
are you for real?

don't you realize that if you had simply answered the phone in the first place- ALL of that would have been avoided, because it would have been determined that you weren't who they were looking for.

My husband (the hero of this story) ...:rofl: :rofl:
