The phone rings.
Me: “Hello?”
Caller: “[something too quiet to understand] We’re doing a survey, could I ask you three quick questions? It’ll only take half a minute.”
Me: “Yeah, okay.”
Caller: “[something too quiet to understand]”
Me: “I’m sorry, I didn’t understand that.”
Caller: “Did you know one glass of red wine a day is healthy?”
Me: “Yes…”
Caller: “Do you prefer [some kind of wine], [other kind of wine] or [yet another kind of wine that I don’t know anything about]?”
Me: “Sorry, I don’t drink wine.”
Caller: “Frequently, sometimes or rarely?”
Me: “I don’t drink wine. At all.”
Caller: *with a curt, resentful tone* “Thanks, bye.” *hangs up*
An hour later – the phone rings again.
Me: “Hello?”
Caller: “[something too quiet to understand that sounds sort of familiar]”
Me: “You already called me.”
Caller: “Yes, we’re doing a survey, could I ask you three quick questions? It’ll only take half a minute.”
Me: “You already did that. You just asked me the questions a little while ago.”
Caller: *once again curt and resentful* “Thanks, bye.” *hangs up*
