"Lou" also called me and was rude and pushy....currently on hold while I write this commentary..:-)
Calls and asks for Boss- I ask where he is calling from, and he replies "BTE-Business Today Incorporated"
and immediately asks for Boss again. Now, as a receptionist I HATE this response. Do NOT be pushy with me. Do NOT try to bully your way past me. I need to know who is calling, from WHERE you are calling (and NOT the City...) and what you are calling about. My Boss is going to ask me, so I am going to ask you. Its What I do...it's what YOUR Receptionist would do as well....
Anyway- I ask what he is calling in regards to and his reply was "It's a Business Matter. Can I talk to (Boss's name)"
Yup- and right onto hold while i google this number, and then right to voice-mail for you Buddy!
Lou from BTI Engineering called today to speak with the owner of our company (an obvious sales call) ... after asking a couple of questions and hearing Lou's rude responses, i asked that our phone number be placed on the "do not call list". I was told that he "hand picked" our Owner for this opportunity so there was no "do not call list" to be added to.... he seemed rude & pushy.
He was calling from (847) 312-5408....
