WHAT'S GOOD FOR THE GOOSE
Telemarketers get taught a lesson
Humorist Dave Barry recently organized a calling campaign to give telemarketers a taste of their own medicine. Barry, in his August 31 column, he listed the phone number of the American Teleservices Association and asked his readers to call in and complain about the tactics of telemarketers.
Barry is no lightweight as he is syndicated in over 500 newspapers around the country.
It seems the message was heard loud and clear as callers now hear a recording which says that due to "overwhelming positive response to recent media events, we are unable to take your call at this time."
What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
