The Ultimate Rejection

Making my calls in order to drum up sales - that's what us sales professionals do. Called a woman from a theatre organization in San Francisco yesterday and she cut straight to the chase asking me:

Her: "Are you selling advertising?"

Me: "Absolutely"

Her: "Well, we're definitely not interested"

Me: "What if I could show you how cost-effective it really is and..."

Her: "Not even if you're giving us money and a Panda"

Me: "OK... Thanks for your time and take care."

(Alt Me: "How 'bout a drink of water and a moist TOWELETTE!")
