So I just got off the phone with a really pleasant telemarketer trying to sell me a US Postal Service deal to do postage here at the church. Turned her down, of course. You always have to be firm with the poor people or they'll talk right over you, and I hate being mean. I wonder if telemarketers end up with a serious rejection complex. I would hate to go through the rest of life with this nervous twinge that my friend was going to hang up on me at any second.
