"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you," she said and hung up.
Bahaha! That's like opening the door and saying "I'm terribly sorry, but I'm not home right now". I should try that on some JW when they come by, just to see their faces.
The other day I once again got one of those calls. The caller woman was unusually aggressive and unnerved though. Without giving any info who she was calling for, she simply started asking me whether I had cable TV or some such. I kept replying "who are you", and she would simply answer, increasingly annoyed and in a commandeering voice like in a police interrogation "Don't you understand me? Do you have cable!". I again "who are you", and she again, slower this time "*Sigh* Let me try again. DO YOU HAVE CABLE". I've never seen anyone so ineptly sticking to their script, I almost felt bad for her. I wonder if they expressly forbade her to tell the name of the company she was working for.
The ubiquitous ones who want to hawk Italian delicacies are usually much nicer.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
