I Have been receiving a lot of missed calls lately.The numbers were just alien to me. A few months ago I would have just ignored it, as I was no longer in the work force. I know if it is really important the caller will call back again,if they happen to know me.
But since I just started on a new job now, I just cannot simply ignored it, in case it was a customer or worst still from the boss. Well you know these days it is not uncommon for people to carry more than one handphone. I had his official number but not the other one so there is no way I would be able to recognise his other number right? So to play safe I called back the number and sweet young thing answer "hello yǒu kòng guòlái wán ma" which directly translate as Hello are you free to come over to play? Play what ? I answered. Well, I am not sure if I was naive or dumb. It took be quite a while before I realised I was not having a conversation with a sales girl(well in a way yes) but rather a pussy cat doll(china doll if you like) .I am not refering to the singing group here.There was a couple of similiar calls with similar way of answering. I am not sure if they dailed my number at random or somebody have been selling my number to these sales girls. How times have changed and now a days they are so bold to do telemarketing to promote their 'trade"to customers or victims like me.
gosh!didnt know such things happened nowadays. tsk tsk..
