Someone named Bryant (he may have said Brian but I think I heard a "T") called asking for the owner of our company (by name) and when I asked who he was with, he said: Atlas Contractors. When I asked what it was regarding he simply said, rudely, "Is XXX there or not?" and when I told him I needed more information to answer, he was rude again and said "It's a simple question. Is he there or not there." I told him there was no cause to be rude to me and he said "I'm not being rude, is he there or not?" I was getting ready to say something else, and he hung up on me.
I have caller id and caller return, even on our business lines. We are on a no call list. I called the # back and got a voice message stating they were not available, to call another time. I looked it up online and this was the first thing that popped up and the names all sounded legitimate and went along with my own complaint and with the phone #'s location via reverse phone # lookup online.
These telemarketers who are legit need to understand that we're just doing our job. Good luck ever talking to the owner of the company without being completely screened first. Good luck getting thru to us "lowly secretaries" who have much better things to do than listen to someone be demanding and rude, BUT at least the legit ones are nice. It's these, the ones who act like a donkey's behind that get me.
