Telemarketer: Hi, let me speak to {Mom}.
Me: *annoyed at the way Telemarketer phrased it* May I suggest you ask if you can talk to her instead of telling me what to do?
Telemarketer: Can I speak to {Mom}, please?
Me: [chirpily] She isn't here. May I take a message?
Telemarketer: No ... er, this is the Republican Party --
Me: [grumbling] Shit.
Telemarketer: *hangs up*
I am equal opportunity; if the Democrats had any reason to call, I'd be just as rude. I know it isn't Telemarketer's fault, and I'm a little sorry I took my mood out on her, but I do hope she'll take my advice on how to address people from now on.
I need an icon of Shirley Bennett saying, "The Lord is testing me."
