This Will Scare Them Off
------------------------
A customer is answering a phone call from one of those telemarketers
with the "We have the lowest long distance phone rates" lines... (You
know, the ones that call just as you are taking the first bite of your
dinner!)
Customer: I'm glad you called! I've been wanting to get signed up for
that new "nickel-a-minute" rate!
Telemarketer: Certainly, Sir! Just let me get some information from you.
Customer: Right, well, can you go ahead and tell me when I'll get my
first check?
Telemarketer: What, Sir?
Customer: Well, since you're going to give me a nickel a minute, I
wondered when I'll start getting paid.
Telemarketer: No, Sir, we don't PAY you.
Customer: You mean this is a FRAUD?
Telemarketer: No, Sir! It's just that we don't PAY you the nickel a
minute. Let me let you talk to a supervisor.
..long conversation with supervisor...
Telemarketer: Now do you understand, Sir?
Customer: I guess so. Could we talk about the "friends-and-family" plan?
I've always wanted a little brother.
