I love people who waffle on about things they know nothing about

I was out walking the dog again today and I spotted him driving up and down the road again. He then stopped behind me and pulled up, again I had my ipod on, so I am not sure if he sounded the horn.

The dog was distracted and that made me stop at the same time and location as him stopping. He noticed I did not acknoledge him ... so he drove up the road and continued to drive up and down the road.

I cannot have this, I am going to complain to Sky about him, I have his name and mobile because he gave it to me with the leaflet.

Its a wonder his commision covers his petrol!

Agree it all sounds quite shady though.

A friend of mine does it up here in the North East. Commission only job with him earning up too £70 a sale with a target of 2 sales per day, which he does no bother day in day out. He's a very experienced salesman though and does to tend to use the hard sale tactics to get his numbers on the board.

He makes a very good weekly wage.

Lol.. I'm the complete opposite! 29, not blonde, dark skinned... plus, I wear jeans/jogging bottoms all the time!

He followed me again today, I spotted the car yards away and continued to walk on the same side of the road, the dog looked at him, then me, so the man must have been calling me. I continued to walk off, hoping he would take the hint... but no.. he drove around the block again and stopped further up the road and at the last minute I crossed over, knowing full well, he could not be able to do a 3 point turn to get to me.

I would have thought, he would have the intelligence to take the hint, but no. If I see him tomorrow, I will tell him that if he is so hellbent on me having the services, he can install it for free and pay for the services himself and I want all the packages that go with it, so if it costs £80+ per month - then so be it! See what he says to that.

Strange they never admit their BB crawls by comparison, requiring a BT line and naff ADSL too.

Because it doesn't crawl and is not necessarily on naff ADSL either

Come on OP, the man was just doing his job and took the opportunity to try and get a sale.

Walking away wouldnt have been rude if you had just said ''Sorry, it is of no interest' that's all it would have taken.

He's trying to earn a living, same as youj and me, well, not me cos I'm retired.:D

I get paid to not work............

Yeah, I suppose.. but it is a bit extreme isn't it?!
