Nobody likes it when solicitors call. Heck I am one and I don't like but remember they are people too just trying to make a living.

It's true that you do have those that don't seem to listen or care about why you don't want whatever they are selling but it's part of the job. We HAVE to ask multiple times until we are allowed to let it go or else it's our butts in trouble or even fired! Yes we sit in a chair for our 8 hours or sometimes 10 hours so we don't have a lot of physical stress but imagine listening to someone curse you our call you every name in the book, multiple times a day, every day. And all you're allowed to do is smile and take it.

As for how much we make? Well that depends too on how many people we can get to say yes to what we have. We can be making 13 an hour for 2 or 3 months then drop down to only 9 for the next few all because of sales.

And yes you may be mad at the company you currently have but is that a reason to take it out on random Joe? That person may be from the company directly or they may just be a call center who works for said company. If you don't want to listen to what they have to offer that's fine but at least be polite about it. Most people only see it as oh my bill for company A is going to go up I dont want it. But will literally fail to realize that they may be paying more a month for company a and b.

Another is spouses. I'm his wife you can tell me or I'm her husband is not a good reason to tell you what we have to offer. Why? Because of rules we have to follow. Some calls we have to talk to the person we ask for, nobody else. Sometimes depending yes we can talk to the husband or wife so do not be offended if we say we can't talk to you about your spouses account because in that case it's our job on the line.

I'm not saying you should or have to buy what they are selling but at least be polite to them. If I treated any of the people the same way I have been treated I would be fired already. We are people too.
