aman00123 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 There is a load of cold calling, both at the door and on the phone in the states, I did 3 months door to door selling which was seriously hard work just getting someone to open the door! They might be a touch more ignorant then we Brits, but only because they get a whole load more of it imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I've generally found Americans to be more polite on the whole, but cold calling is a different ballgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westcoaster Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 It's amazing how useful it is to get a once in a lifetime offer to have a new kitchen fitted/get double glazing/get a conservatory/get uPVC Fascia and Soffit whilst you're sitting eating your dinner. To all cold callers, FECK OFF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
