I rec'd a call from a guy calling himself MIKE today at 9:37am (ET) saying he was raising money for the NC Firefighter's Association. When I politely told him I couldn't give this time, he said, and I quote "Yeah you can. You're just a f..king b..ch!" as he hung up the phone.
I tried to call him back, but imagine....."you have reached a number that has been disconnected."
I sent an eamail to the Coordinator of the NC Firefighter's Assoc to find out who they hire for their fundraising efforts. I think this was pretty much the last straw with me. NONE of those paid agencies who do telephone fundraising should EVER call me again. All the good agencies out there who pay companies like the one he works for should reconsider how they get their money. Maybe they should do it themselves and keep it local instead of allowing some angry lunatic to solicit money for them.
