Medallion is a telemarketing firm that solicits money for charities, namely Special Olympics. They simply will not leave me alone. I'm all for helping others who are less fortunate than me, but since October of 2007, Medallion has called me something like 10 times asking for money, and each time I asked them to leave me alone. Do yourself a favor: don't answer when these people call. They're like a virus.
After about 10 times of them calling and never leaving a message I decided to answer one night. The caller then started in on a scripted dissertation on how society has not valued people whose mental capacity is not "normal". If you cannot give me the common courtesy of an upfront honest request without all the guilt laden preaching then count me out. I said no thanks and hung up. I have a special needs nephew with physical and mental challenges and we already support variety club and special olympics and several other charities as well as our local church to the tune of about 15% of our gross income so I am tapped out.
