Short, gruff, voice, asked for one of the owners, when I said they weren't in, they hung up, no good-bye, no nothing. Little did they know they were talking to the other owner. What a terrible way to do business. Whatever they're selling, I ain't interested.
Received call from rude guy saying he's with Tucker Group demanding to speak to an owner who's not been with company for several years. Said he's returning a call from that specific owner. He kept pushing, I hung up.
Took a cold call that came in through our call center from a man named Brandon who said the boss was expecting his call. He was a bit arrogant and spoke with a hint of what seemed to be a regionally southern accent. Interesting that he wasn't even sure what the ED's name was. I asked him what type of organization Tucker and Associates was and he said "energy" but wouldn't explain the nature of his call. But when I suggested that his name didn't sound familiar and that Scott was in meetings and I'd likely have been the one to schedule a call for him, he became a little disrespectful--dismissive, really. Then I asked him to hold while I looked up his firm on line. That's when he called me sneaky and hung up.
