Ehh, Resort Timeshare Consultant sounds a lot cooler anyways, I mean, what other job can you get boxed into you rown little cubby, and have a cheap chair, and a cheap phone, and just call people up and ask them annoying questions???? [nt] -- Drake, 00:27:01 07/23/99 Fri
- Stop trying to make you're job sound better than it is. You're a telemarketer. Accept it. We wont hold it against you forever. Just the next 5 million years or so. But they'll fly by, trust me. And accept for the calling bit, that's exactly what I did at my first summer job. :-P [nt] -- Mr. Phule, 00:30:29 07/23/99 Fri
  - ::sigh:: I dun care what you think, I'm a Resort Timeshare Consultant, so :P i set up appointments, I don't sell stuff. :) [nt] -- Drake, 00:33:16 07/23/99 Fri
    - You know...not many "Telemarketers" actually sell stuff either. And you are too selling stuff. You're selling time. Not only that, you're stealing it. YOU'RE WORSE THAN THE TELEMARKETERS. FLEE SH, FLEE. I'll hold him back long enough for the rest of you to escape! [nt] -- Mr. Phule, 00:41:29 07/23/99 Fri
      - I don't sell anything, there is absolutely no cost or obligation at all... actually, I'm really tired of the job already, it sucks, a lot, being a Resort Timeshare Consultant sucks, anyways, yeah.. [nt] -- Drake, 00:47:58 07/23/99 Fri
        "No Cost or Obligation?" Don't make me laugh. If they agree, they have to OBLIDGE to come down to that meeting. And gas in this state aint cheap ya know. So I see both cost and obligation. The fact that they are secondary means nothing. Telemarketer. [nt] -- Mr. Phule, 00:56:43 07/23/99 Fri
        We arent selling, were giving away, a trip to Las Vegas or San Diego, for 3 days 2 nights, and air far for 2, so :P and if they apply within 10 days, they get 2 free VIP tickets to tommy tees, so :P again, and one more :P for luck.. :) Resort Timeshare Consultant. -- Drake, 01:00:04 07/23/99 Fri
        Ok, fine. But what about the people who aren't elligable? HMMMMMMMMM? For those people, it's an utter waste of time. And even for those of who do qualify. Drake, you cannot justify this. You call people up, annoy the hell out of them. I'll bet people accept just because they know it'll shut you up and are too polite to hang up. So :-P yourself. Telemarketer.
