If there's ever been a person that needed a new job, it's that telemarketer! I can't understand why someone would actually take a job like that willingly. Painful.

The only thing we have in common is that we're all given the same 24 hours in a day.
I will not waste one minute of my time on telemarketers.
Time is too precious and a resource not to be squandered.
The Do Not Call List was the first in a long time and the last thing congress got right.

You're so right! Your story illustrates very clearly that we're all interdependent in this world and when we act we should do so with consideration for others, because all our actions have effects. If we all treated others like you treated that telemarketer...
'imagine the world we would create!
Each of us treating strangers
as our other half,
where nothing was too much
for the well-being of another
and selfishness was forgotten,
a thing of the past...'
(excerpt from my book 'Family and More - Enemies or Friends?')
When time presses and demands of family and job press down, it can be difficult to do this, so thank you for the reminder!
