Dear annoying vendor guy...

[msfledermaus]

...The one that keeps calling me whenever I need to concentrate on something for even a minute:

If I wanted to buy something from your company, I would have called to inform you. Have you noticed that I'm always busy when you call? Of course you have..that's known as...being very busy. Too busy to have to politely dodge your company's advances in the realm of post it notes, printer cartridges, etcetra. And yet I do it...Why? Because I'm professional as the day is long...It would be nice if it was reciprocal, but that's a lot to assume in a big chaotic world, I know....
To sum up: My politely informing you that I'm very busy should not be met with "So when's a good time to meet with you about your products? Next week? Early next week? " (See above) We've already met about your products, and I (gasp!) wasn't impressed. What you're getting on my end is tact in action. Employ some today!!!!

RRRRrrrgh, annoying would-be-vendors....cutting into my LJ time...*grin*

That's the problem with being polite, and saying, "no, I'm sorry, I'm too busy to talk with you." Later on, when you're fed up, and you tell them, "no, I really will not ever buy you're product," then they realize you were lying to them all along. Just stringing them along. And you realize deep inside you're just as miserable a bastard as they.

Yeah...

(besides, I've told this guy that we have another company we've been using for a decade, we're happy with them, etcetra...so it's not like I've sought them out or anything...)
