pissed by a stupid phone call

i'm rather pissed off by those people that call you on your phone with the intention of promoting whatever latest product or promotions that they have to offer. i wonder how they even get your phone number in the first place. but never mind that. it's the way that they promote and behave towards you is what makes me feel irritated to even listen to what they have to say in the first place.

like for instance yesterday i got a call from a specialist hospital in kl. previously i received a call from another hospital in Damansara and it wasn't my cup of tea, so i wasn't even remotely interested to listen to whatever it is this person had to say. so before he could launch into a fully detailed explanation, i politely told the person that i wasn't interested. and you know what? that idiot had the audacity to hang up on me mid-sentence. just like that. how rude! i mean, come on, you're the one that called in the first place with the intention of promoting something, so you're supposed to act courteous on the phone, disregarding if that person on the other side of the line is interested or not. i mean, wth!?

today i got another phone call from the same hospital, but this time from a woman instead. again, the same thing happened to me. the words 'not interested' barely left my mouth when she simply hung up on me. and didn't bother making small chat. how rude can those people be? omg, if any company plans to promote anything via the phone, they could at least hire more polite people. at this rate you're just giving the company a bad name. and who knows if they're genuine callers in the first place?

yeah, i was pissed. not only because i hadn't even wanted to receive such a call in the first place, but of how i was rudely hung up on when i should have the right to do so for disturbing my inner peace of mind. especially when you're feeling a bit rattled due to the fact that your client has been busy bugging you nonstop the whole day when you're actually no longer working on that account. jergh! see why i dislike taking the time to listen to all those insurance policies promotions and stuff like that?

i haven't been in a good mood lately. just recovered from a bad sore throat, a runny nose and a mild headache. my colleague said i shouldn't be pissed off too much, afraid later Baby will inherit that trait from me. lol.
