Recently I ahve a lot of cold callers to the house on the phone and at the door, generally i am polite to them as i know it is a job they have to do, but what should happen is this -
Hello i'M Natalie i'M calling from best holidays do you want a holiday?
me - no thank you but i'll remeberthe name of your company if i do want one.
NOT as just happened on doorstep and on phone last week
open door, bloke is grinning
he says hello how are you?
i don't have conversations like this with strange guys on the doorstep.I say nothing.He continues to look at me.
me - do you want something?
him - yes i was just asking how you were.
er no that is your cue to tell me if you actually want something or if you just perv about the neighbourhood all day.
me - ok, so you don't want anything.
