with the huntington theatre company

i answer the phone
he says carina?
i say yes
he says just a sec
and then tells me he's from the huntington theatre company
and proceeds to starts reading the plays and descriptions of each
good reader..been over 3 minutes now

lol

he's still reading

tell him to do a production of the play in team america with the aids song

lol

it was funny because he didn't let me get a word in
but then i liked the way he was reading so i was actually listening to all of the plays descriptions
6 plays $210 for the season per ticket
plus a free ticket to BSO for every ticket you purchase
or
5 plays for $185
4 plays for $160


~~~
he's gonna call me back again next week to see if i am interested

Wow. If calling people all day was my job I'd kill myself. Or get another job.

my freshman year i did phone-a-thon for 2 semesters --- i had to call alums and asked them for money --- it sucked so bad

that i just started asking for $1 just so i could make my quotas.

i feel so bad for telemarketers but i still hang up on them. heh

yeah, i feel bad for them too, the job just really must suck so much. but i have a very low tolerance for them as well.

heh

they got me again!

only 6 minutes

and none of the plays interested me and that's what i told him
it was a different guy though

tell him to you wanna hear what a gunshot to the head over the phone sounds like

I was a telemarketer for awile. Maybe you guys hung up on me at some point. Telemarketers have got to be some of the most unhappy people youll ever meet. I could never do that again. I was stoned out of my mind every day there but i still couldnt stand it. I just stopped going.

i used to hear horror stories from my ex, who was a telemarketer for a while, she worked at some place in worcester sellin windows or some shit. Some of the stuff she told me was the funniest shit i ever heard

nope, not me...i listened to the guy but i wasn't interested in anything he had

I was selling magazine subscriptions to benefit the special olympics. I was always really tempeted to make phone calls as a retard raising money but i figured it wouldnt go over well with the boss.

magazines for the special olympics... wasnt that from a movie?

"i used to be a crackhead, but now i sell magazine subscriptions to benefit the special olympics" fuck, what movie is that

office space. duh.

But i really was selling magazine subscriptions for the special olympics. And ive only done crack five or six times and it was only when there wasnt any coke around!

ok... sorry, i need to brush up
