I’ve never been one to hang up on a telemarketer.  It just seems like they are just trying to do their job and make a living where they can.  So, why be rude?  Instead, I’ll let them pitch their product and give me their best sales voice!  If its turns out that I honestly don’t want whatever they are selling, at least it wasn’t from their lack of attempt.  ;-)  

However, this company “Education Ambassadors” is wearing my patience and may be cause the first incident of my rudeness toward a telemarketer.  A while back I looked into a scholarship site.  And ever since, they’ve been calling me.  Referring me to schools that can help me.  Well, I’m not going back to school.  So, I asked them to stop calling.  Since, they’ve called back several times.  Each time, I politely ask them to “remove my number…”, “stop calling”, or something of the like.  Then I continue to let the representative give me their best sales voice.  Well, this morning was a sign that they have called too many times.  I’ve spoken to so many schools, that I am officially on the “do not call” list for all the schools that Education Ambassadors represents.  So, with yet another call this morning to introduce me to the “right school”, they ran into a brick wall and went so far as to ask me if I’d like to get a degree in a different subject!!  Or if I’d like to go for a Masters or PhD!  Wow!  Seriously….you’ve RUN OUT of schools to introduce me to?  Take a hint!  

I’m afraid that if they call again, I will actually have to be rude and threaten to sue their company for harassment.  I hope they don’t call again.  I’d hate to be rude.  

Hey! Its been a bit since I’ve blogged.  Sorry fans…er..um…fan.  

Anywho.  Life has been rough, true to the title of this blog.  But things going on in my life are not meant for public eyes.  So, my own personal journal has been getting all my attention these days.  I’ve actually been technologically distant these past days.  Which is odd.  For me.  I’m normally all about my computer.  No kidding, I’d sleep with it if it didn’t have sharp corners that could take my eyes out at night.  And the risk of it over-heating and burning me as I dreamt wasn’t an issue.  (My spell-check is telling me “dreamt” is not a word.  Is that true? When did that become so? So many issues.)

Well.  I do like taking a break from the cyber world every now and again though.  No blogs. No social networks. Nothing but real, breathing, blood pulsing, heart beating people.  Its nice.
