Trust me, it's harder being a telemarketer than hearing from one. I called a home once, and a little girl picked up. I asked to speak to her parents, but instead was given a tour of her house. "I see a book, a flower, a doggy..." Eventually, her father took the phone, allowing me to recite my pitch. "Hi. I'm calling from ABC Telephone Company. How much do you pay for long distance?"

"Hold on, please," he said. The next thing I heard: "I see a table, a lamp, a refrigerator, a light..."
