# I did some work for a market research company once
the survey was "should the NHS fund tattoo removal" - you'd be amazed at how many people there are out there that don't know what a tattoo is!

# I'm continually amazed that
the people I speak to make it through the day.
The great general public are 90% muppets.
100% of FACT!

I'm in market research, I should know
And yes, I hate it.

# Nah housewives are too busy
cleaning/cooking/looking after the kids to answer the phone.
That is NOT an insult, its FACT

# Too busy on B3ta

# Yeah that too.
But the number of times I've been told "No, I'm cooking for the kids"...

# I have often thought
of keeping a tape recording of crying children beside the phone, and playing it when people ring. That'll scare them off.

# yep
trying to explain to people that you don't actually have their phone number, the number was randomly selected by a computer program.

public : where'd you get this number
me : er, a computer guessed it
public : but it's ex directory!
me : twat *hangsup*

I did this job for about a week, I still have nightmares..

# Erm, probably the smoking one
Though hearing the words "blood clots on my lungs" is helping me to think about quitting.

this is getting a bit like the antiscript that was on t'front page a while back, for when people like me call up. I put it up at work, people loved it

# that was good
although I got a bit bored trying to follow it all. I prefer the "Sorry, I'm not interested. Goodbye" approach.

# I get quite a lot of that
Its great for winding people up on a Saturday morning.

We do it for Lloyds Bank.

Watch out.
edit: sorry Lloyds TSB. I could get fired for that

# I just act thick
And say that my husband looks after all that stuff, and I don't have a clue. He say's that he leaves it all to me. Works surprisingly well..
