I don't know a single soul that I've met in my lifetime who came from Nebraska. Yet this state name on my caller I.D. has been tormenting me for about 4 months.
When they first started calling...it was for "Make a Wish" for children. Naturally, I gave.
Next it was for Breast Cancer....and naturally I gave.
Now I am on this professional fund raiser's sucker list. I get calls twice a day...different times...sometimes there's no one even on the line....and sometimes I hear a woman's voice.
Now I know these telemarkets are just trying to make a living....and they do it with leads. Once I say yes to them.....20 seconds later, I get another call to confirm my donation.
Well today...I took action!! When the phone rang and I saw it was once again the familiar Nebraska,,,,,,and this very sweet voice starts to talk.....and I interrupt her and let her know that these calls are destroying my sanity....making me crazy....and I can't stand them...and therefore, I'm giving no more donations.
Very sweetly she said she understood...and would put me on the 'don't call l list. ...but it'll take about a month.
I thanked her profusely....grateful, I won't be bothered anymore.
So long Nebraska!!!!!!!!!I just hope it works.
