We telemarketers know we're universally loathed. Still, some people are quite pleasant on the phone. One day I called a number and asked to speak with Mr. Morgan. The woman who answered explained that he no longer lived at that address, but she did have a number where he could be reached. I thanked her, rang that number and was greeted with, “Good morning, Garden Cemetery.”
我們電話推銷員知道,我們到哪里都是不受歡迎的。不過,仍然有一些人在電話上是挺友善的。有一天,我打一個(gè)電話,要求和摩根先生講話。接電話的女人說,他已經(jīng)不在那個(gè)地址住了。不過她有一個(gè)電話號(hào)碼可以找到他。我謝了她,撥通了那個(gè)電話號(hào)碼,對(duì)方的問候語是:“早上好!這里是花園公墓。”
