… Telemarketers often call our company and I don’t mind it so much because then I can practice my televangelist routine and tell them all about Je-sus.

Eh. Sometimes you have to get creative to break up the monotony.

With a name like 'Oral' the career options were limited.

    I am definitely going to start this practice tomorrow, I know they’ll be calling the office.

    We often get recruitment calls at my company: “Would you like staff?” etc etc. It’s most efficient to reply: “The red god Xupubahlal is appeased at present with the sacrifice of the last three. May we call you at the next lunar cycle?”

    When we get calls from the Lupus Society I tell them we don’t want any Lupus today. They don’t know how to react, so I get a chance to say goodbye.

    I actually have a couple of friends who do this in their day to day. At the dmv, at the supermarket…

    I think it’s kinda nice.

    (I was in the habit of telling telemarketers ‘Have a very blessed day” as I hung up. I might just start doing that again.)
