Actual conversation with telemarketer
-- Can I speak to Ms. Bartlett?
-- May I tell her who is calling?
-- This is [so-and-so] with [some mortgage company].
-- May I tell her what this is regarding?
-- It's regarding an opportunity to obtain pre-approved financing for the purposes of home improvement.
-- I'm pretty sure she's not interested in that.
-- She's not interested in home improvement?
-- No. She hates home improvement.
-- Really?
-- Oh yeah. Top of her list. There's nothing she hates more than home improvement. Boy, you should hear her talk about her strong dislike of home improvement! It's really something.
-- This is about financing ...
-- She hates financing too. Home improvement and financing. Hates them both equally. Which is to say a lot.
-- Okay ... well. Thank you.
-- Bye now.
