If you get a call on your home phone and caller will offer
you a deal, will you be interested entertaining the call? You probably will listen
for a while as a courtesy to the caller. There are a number of telemarketers
bugging subscribers selling all sorts of items or offering services. Be
careful, some of them are bogus, in other words scam. I intentionally did not
have my home phone listed on the directory for this reason. Those who knew my
number are my provider, my bank and few relatives. Likewise some pizza stores
or food chains who might have saved my number when my niece order s online.
These pizza stores needed a phone to call, to verify the existence of the
buyer.
I got two calls from my service provider offering me a
package that would convert my television to internet television. I am aware of the plan as they had advertised
the product and services. I forgo the offer. I have and old model television. I do not have
an HDMI port on my television. An officemate told me I could buy an extension
cord I could use for the television. The cord has both component and HDMI plug
in. I had been busy or possibly a bit
lazy to go around for the extension cord. I put the idea on hold for a while. The
package is actually cheaper than subscribing to a cable company.
