Happened today:

*ring*
amette: "Mette"

woman: "Hello, Mr. Mette. I'm with the compensation department of FairPlay. You ended playing the lottery with us. We want to compensate you for whatever inconvenience made you make that decision!"

amette: "I don't remember!"

woman: "It was SKL or NKL or something like that."

amette: "Ah, I remember, I never started to play that with you!"

woman: "Well, that's exactly my business. Our compensation package includes... blaah, blah, unbelievable shit, blah, impossible promises, blah, blaah-blaaaah, no pause to say something, blah, blaaaaaah....." - she has to breathe

amette: "I'm not interested though!"

woman: "How come?"

amette: "Well, I am becoming disgusted by those telephone sellings..." - HA, now I'm going to tell!

woman hangs up

amette stares at telephone

What do we learn?
Don't be polite with those people!
