A "lady?" named Carol called here and also asked for the CEO by name. He said to get her # because he did not know her. She was annoyed and asked in a very annoyed voice if I had a pen - I replied "of course I do - this is an office". She said she didn't need this "*^&%$". I hung up when she used profanity. she called back 1 minute later and called me "a piece of trash"!!!
I called them back and asked for a manager - I ws given the run around and then a very young man got on the phone. No satisfaction - but he did want my name, company & # - I refused.
A guy called and he knew my name. I am a CEO of a software firm and he said that he is following up on that we were looking for "capital". I told him the company had been acquired and hung up. He said he was with Houlihan Smith
a guy called from this phone number asked for the person in charge of the company (he knows our company name by the way). So I asked who is calling, he pulsed for a second then asked "is HE there?", I told him SHE is actually out of town now and what is the nature of his business. The moron did not answer my question and asked another one: "when is he... I mean SHE coming back?" I lost my patience, and told him I have no clue because she is visiting a foreign country and it can take weeks." then he hung up, before I had the chance to swear at him. Why swear at him you might ask, because his tone was demanding, sounded like he's the #%*!ing boss.
