A Telephone Conversation

vidchakra · Mar 25, 2011

Want to share here a funny conversation which I happened to over hear in office. This was some time back. This person sits just in the next cubicle, he is a very funny person and has a really loud voice. He was talking to a telemarketing person (a lady).Whatever the lady says here is my imagination.

SHE - Good Morning Sir

HE - Nothing has been good for me this morning till you called me. Hope the morning turns out good now. You have a very nice voice.

SHE - Thank you sir. I am calling from XYZ bank.

HE - Wow, First tell me your name.

SHE - My name is Rose

HE - Nice name. What happened? I can sense something is wrong from your voice. Any problem? You can tell me. I have all the time in this world to listen to you.

SHE - No sir, No problem. I just called you regarding the loan we are offering.

HE - Oh, then you are not well? There is some tension in your voice.

SHE - I am fine sir. We are offering personal loan.

HE - Thank you. I am very much interested. I am in need of money.

SHE - Yes sir. We will be happy to help you.

HE - Hmm.. I want a loan of 10 crores. Why dont we meet today? We can talk this over coffee.
That was the last line I heard. I think the lady disconnected after this.

Reminds me of a similar scenarion, where my friend said that he wanted a 0%interest on his existing 1.75 L loan that would be transferred to the new card if given. Nice to read Vidchakra. Thanks. -rgs

:thumbsupThat was a humourous one!!

But I used to pity the telemarketing executives. All they want is lot of patience!!

Telemarketers from India are calling the US these days -- the joys of globalization.

An Indian girl called me recently to congratulate me on making some list. I asked her for her home telephone number and the time when she ate dinner. She asked why. I said "So that I can return the favor by calling you at home and congratulating you when you are eating dinner'. She hung up quickly.

I used to be more patient with telemarketers but am not anymore.

Hi Vid,

Really nice and cute... though you heard one end of the conversation, you created the other end to perfectly fit well in the humorous dialogues... <Applause>
