I've worked phone jobs. I'm good at talking to idiots over the phone.

I would have walked out and started to look for a new job. Nu-uh. What they were doing was just wrong on so many levels...

There's never a shortage of idiots when you work the phones. No shortage in management, either.

I got to work this morning and found one similar to that from some anti-abortion group on the answering machine at St. P's. If I get any more, those groups are going to find out that I write fantastic complaint letters about violations of the Do Not Call listing.

I've gotten to the point where, when I say "Hello?" and I don't hear an answer within five seconds, I hang up. Fuck 'em!

It's really great to know that there are still people willing to make sacrifices to stand by their principles.
