A lot of times I answer and say attorneys office or police department how may I help you? More often than not they hang up. When someone calls about my warranty is up on my car I say well I have 2019 Corvette and the wifey has a 2020 Mercedes. Which one are you talking about? They hang up also,

Still funny, wish I had the foresight to set that one up. For the life of me, why are they still out there? NO one likes them, do they ever sell anything? I did have one call my shop about 30 years ago wanting to sell me blades, discs, cards, ad nauseum. I told him maybe if he had some duct stretchers for sale I might be interested. He says, Screws you! I told him, no I'm serious we use this tool in the A.C. trade (true). I said let me find my invoice from my last purchase + see if you can be competitive. I kept him on the line for 30 minutes, periodically asking if he were still there + that I was still looking. It did take the bozo 30 minutes to figure it out.
I'm sure that's they did it "back home". I used to get so pissed off with my ex when we would be out + the rude Mexican wets would constantly shove + try to move to the front of any line. She would say, well that's how they do it down there. My response was then they should have stayed there!
