I was talking to my friend one day about telemarketers and she admitted she was one while going to school. She said it was AWFUL, that people were really rude, so she would tell them that she was a student trying to make a living and to put herself to school. It's a job for her and there's no reason for them to be rude to her.

What I get these days are the recorded telemarketing calls. Those I have no qualms hanging up on, but worse in that you can't tell them to take your number off their list.
