I am not sure what you are selling or peddling but what ever it is EVEN if I wanted it I would not buy from a company with this kind of moral compass. Anybody that will call after 9pm on a school night is scum!!!
Jan,
I am really sorry but BR Interviewing is not a debt collection agency and they are not telemarketors. They are simple survey takers. All you have to do is is answer about 6 questions. If they ask you a question and you dont want to answer just tell them you refuse to answer that particular question. Its that easy. They arent asking much from anyone besides taking a survey, By hanging up on them or just ignoring the call your costing someone else their job and in this econamy you take what you can get at this point.
BR Interviewing gets cell numbers, business numbers, as well as home numbers. If the call a business that is because the have a short survey for businness only. For instance the could just be asking you simple questions such as Does your place of business sell teires? things like that, It takes all of 30 seconds so its not like it is taking any time away from you.
You've got a lot of nerve stating that by hanging up or ignoring the call people are costing someone else a job!!! No matter what you are calling for, you are infringing on my privacy, and my right to not answer the telephone. Just because I have a phone does not mean I am obligated to answer every call the comes in, especially when I know it is not personally importantant to me.
Have you ever thought about just this one scenario....at any given moment, people are just living their lives. Some are involved in medical situations, some have just experienced the death of a family member, someone is waiting to get that job, and the list goes on and on. In each case, they do not need the stress of dealing with phone calls that are not relevant to their own personal life situation.
Your survey, and your job, are: 1. Your company's problem, and 2. Your problem. You can't guilt anyone into answering a useless, waste of their time call. STOP!
