Let me give you some tips.
Tip one is that if you can’t pronounce my name I’m not going to be particularly polite to you. For example, if you ask for me and I can’t tell if you’re trying to talk to me or order a Sicilian pastry then I don’t have time to deal with you and you will get a response such as “If you can’t pronounce my name then I don’t have time to talk to you.” I know that this is rude, but if I just ran to the phone holding a bottle feeding baby only to have someone I don’t want to talk to on the other end of the line then you have to understand that you get what you get.
Tip two is that if I have to say “Hello” two times (or more) because you’re too lazy to hold the phone up to your ear instead of having me on speakerphone until I answer and therefore you do not hear me then you will not get the desired result. I will hang up on you. It’s that simple.
Tip three is that if someone is on the Do Not Call list then they probably don’t want to be contacted by telephone and won’t respond very politely if you try. That’s why it’s called a DO NOT CALL list. See how that works?
This isn’t rocket science, people.
