Every evening, without fail, I receive unsolicited phone calls from telemarketing companies and the like. Most are dead-air autodiallers that you can hang-up on before the tape starts, but some are irritating and persistent graduates, evidently wondering why they can’t get a better job (hint guys: because you’re morons and your degrees are worthless). Some conversations, however, indicate exactly why all these jobs are being outsourced to Bangalore.
“Hello Sir, I’m from CrapTel. Can I ask you, are you still with BT?”
“No.”
“So you don’t have a land line then?”
“What the hell do you think you’re speaking to me on?”
“Oh, er, um. Thank you Sir.”

Usually telephone salesmen are more persistent than herpes, but this one couldn’t get off the line quick enough. If I’m ever unemployed, I’ll turn to bank robbery before telesales: it’s better regarded by society.
