Robot Salespeople On Phones Today

Persuasive Robotic sales calls The newest not-so-improved phone solicitor Easier to hang up now. Less desperation. You do not go to church with it. You will not meet it at a PTA meeting. You are probably not related. Just a banal sounding recorded voice. Progress? I think not. So much easier to say no.

Caren, we live in an age that would eat cell phones if they could. So no surprise, companies feed us our just deserts. In Techie we Trust? Enter robo calls. Ick. I don't like robo calls either. But being weird, I prefer a human voice. I do know some calls still have humans on the other end. I respect them always. Thank you for an idea for another poem Panagiota.

You are welcome my friend. Fly away with it. Ideas are rampant around here. All I have to do is turn my head. I have piles of stuff everywhere leaking ideas.

Very well put, Caren! Those calls drive me up the wall. Thankfully, if have caller ID and don't respond to such calls. Bob

I get an average of four of these a day on my office phone and I work in a grade school. It is crazy!

Robotic salespeople attempt to be demotic---but come off as idiotic! Good thoughts here, Caren! In fact, you're inspired me! (See 'Blessed Sales Calls' on my list today) :) gw
