The persistent insurance agent

(This one was a true incident.)

Agent: Hello Mr/Miss (insert your surname), I’m Eileen, calling from ABC insurance agency. Hi, I’m calling regarding the insurance policy you expressed interest in that day?

Me: No, I dunno any Eileen and I didn’t express any interest in insurance.

Agent: Are you sure? My colleague Adele gave me your name.

Me: I dunno any Adele either.

Agent: Oh, nevermind, I’m here to tell you more about the insurance policy that you were interested in.

Me: No, I’m not interested in any policy.

Agent: But why not?

Me: Cuz I’ve already bought my insurance and don’t intend to buy any more.

Agent: Oh, really? But we have new policies and I think you will be interested in them! How about I tell you more about them?

Me: No, I’m not interested in any policy.

Agent: blah blah blah.

Me: robotic voice I-am-not-interested-in-any-policy. (and that was me in an average mood that day)

Other ways of responding:

ONE
You: Oh, sorry, I’m actually an insurance agent as well, so I’m covered.

TWO
You: I dun believe in insurance.

Haha but a friend in insurance told me, he’d then reply:

“Insurance is not religion, you don’t have to believe in it.”

Disclaimer: These accounts are a humorous take on our all-too-serious lives. Please try not to use the meaner replies. After all, it’s just part of their jobs. However, I really wish that these callers would stop lying, and just be frank about doing what they’ve really called to do. I hate liars.
