I should state that this is not against any particular profession, these people come in all walks of life whether down the pub, on the other end of the phone speaking rubbish, or in a meeting etc.
I HATE it when people give you the BIG SALE. When they think they know what you need, tell you that what they've got to sell you is rare, that you are special for having even been offered it, and, of course, its an amazing deal and it is only available for a nano-second.
For some reason such people are unescapable.
I have recently been looking for a new job, I've spoken to a number of recruiters and nearly all have been fine to talk to. Some more useful than others, some slightly more pushy, but all generally fine. Then there is this one guy, he is an idiot.
If he leaves me a voicemail it sounds as if he needs my help to dis-arm a bomb, he makes it sounds so urgent. He starts every phone call with "OK Rossyl., OK ROSSYL, I've got some GREAT great news that I am SURE that you will be interested in. I've spoken to X and they said they are interested in you, now I don't say this about everyone, but this is a GREAT opportunity".
. Idiot.
Yesterday on the train I saw some bloke trying to explain to his, I presume, acquaitance, as the bloke was obviously desperate to get away from him, that he'd got a load of one-size fits all phone covers that were the best phone covers ever. For 15 minutes he banged on about flipping phone covers to this poor bloke who kept trying to read his book. One person on the train actually started laughing.
Last year when selling and buying a property, I kept receiving emails from our estate agent that for a start made absolutely no sense, the only thing that i could gather was that I was going to lose both my sale and purchase every other minute of the day! On speaking to my seller and buyer, this was far from the truth.
Where does this mentality come from!!
Sorry, I realise this is a pointless rant. I am sure people get equally annoyed by someone posting pointless rants on forums!!
