My friend passes the phone to her 5 year old daughter for her to tell them about her day at school. My mum just spends all the time saying thats for me to know and you to find out .....Sealed pot challenge 822

Reminds me of a dirty phone call I got years ago - answered the phone to lots of heavy breathing, he was getting very excited but couldn't speak just panted some more so told him as he was shy I'd help and i was wearing white panties - he hung up - obviously wanted someone more submissive !Sealed pot challenge 822

Ask them to spell their name. Then ask them to spell the company name. Then ask them where it is located, how long it has been in business, how many people work there, how they got into this line of work, are they married?, kids?, etc. Continue asking them personal questions or questions about their company for as long as necessary.Or you can say you are busy at the moment and ask him/her if he/she will give you his/her HOME phone number so you can call him/her back. When they explains that telemarketers cannot give out their HOME numbers you say "I guess you don't want anyone bothering you at home, right?"bye hoo0
