The Call

The call came unexpectedly this morning.

Caller: Hi, My name is Beatrice from Prudential, your friend gave me your number to me.

Me: Huh? Which 'friend'?

Caller: She don't want me to tell you.

Me: *speechless*

Caller: Anyway, I would like to introduce some insurance plan for you....bla bla bla~ (at this part I am already lost)

Me: Sorry, I already have mine.

Caller: No, no...maybe you can buy other plans..bla bla bla (I lost count of her 'menu')

Me: Really, am not interested. Plus, I am busy at this moment.

Caller: Owh? Sorry to bother you. I will call you on Friday then so you can listen.

Me: Can you just email me all your whatsoever plans you have so that I can browse through it one by one? (Trying to be nice and to shorten the conversation.)

Caller: Email? No lah, if I send you through email, I am afraid that you don't understand. (What am I? Retard?)

Me: =.= ........ Sorry, I am just not interested. Bye.

This is one of many irritating calls that I received. Previously I got calls from the bank. You had credit card or loan from one bank, say Bank A but then one day some people from Bank B, C & D called and wanted to introduce you to their credit card promotions and things like that. Well, before I started to think that there are possibilities that 'inside' people are giving away our personal details to another people out there, hopefully someone can explain to me how they actually got our details and managed to contact us even though we really certain that we never got in touch with any of the other banks around.

Not that I am against insurance agents, or the people who wanted to introduce the 'skim cepat kaya' or the 'francising' agents. Well...that's your job mah. But I really despise the people who leaked out my info to you people out there.

And also...please lah...when I said I am not interested, I am not. =.=
