Telemarketers should be against the law. (1) They are calling total strangers. (2) They don't know what they are interupting. (3) They don't know your schedule of when you work and when you sleep. (4) They could be calling someone who is handicapped and has a very difficult time getting to the phone. And a million other reasons. I hate it and for this reason I pay extra to have an unpublished phone number.

I think that people who are forced into doing any job, including telemarketing, don't enjoy it as much as those more fortunate who enjoy their careers.
I find telemarketers really annoying and used to get upset with them when they called me, then I found a better solution.
I find when telemarketers call me now, I just put the receiver down (preferably across the room) and let them babble, they eventually hang up. I think the record in my house is 12 minutes of straight talking before they realized there was nobody on the other end.

I get that too people can't pronounce a simple last name... I have caller ID so I normally call back and if I get some one I really let them have it.
