This is why I keep coming back to this blog every day! Very sweet!
Well, you know, it seemed kinder than saying NO twenty times and then hanging up on her. This may be the first time a telemarketer has ever hung up on me.
ROFLMAO! You so just made my day!
I don’t get it. ???
Why did she hang up? I’m missing something here?
Also - why aren’t you on the Do Not Call list?
(Also, your security code image was “marleysgho” - but there was an extra letter hanging off the right side, that prevented me from posting because I couldn’t see it to enter it - and I had to close out the page and go back to it, in order to post this comment. —Just thought maybe this is something you’d want to know about.)
Most of these hotels are equipped to handle the average American family with 2.5 kids. That doesn’t cost them anything extra. You can fit 2.5 kids in hotel room with a rollaway cot easily. When you start talking 6 kids, that calls for an additional room and that’s costing the hotel a lot of extra money if they’re basically giving the accommodations away in a special discount offer. More than likely, if I had pursued it, she would have told me that I’d have to pay going rates for an extra room. Add that to airfare for a family with 6 kids...she knew it was a losing proposition for me as well as for her and she wasn’t going to pursue it and she was eager to get off the phone before I said, “but you said my family, not half my family....”
I haven’t gotten around to the Do Not Call List yet. I have caller ID so it’s not that big a deal, really. I just don’t answer most of the time and let the answering machine deal with it. Messages are easy to delete if they even leave one. Sometimes I answer out of curiosity.
yeah, some of my code words are too long. I hate to part with some of them, but I guess I should go edit the longer ones out. That has happened to me a couple of times, too.
