[comp.dcom.telecom] Good News on the Telemarketing Front

scjones%thor@uunet.uu.net (Larry Jones) (01/13/91)

According to a (very brief!) note in the Business section of Friday's
{Cincinnati Post}, US Sprint has laid off 280 telemarketing employees.
It may not be much, but it certainly is a step in the right direction!

[Moderator's Note: The only thing that will happen now is those 280
people will get scattered all over the USA in other telemarketing
firms looking for fresh meat. So instead of getting a call every few
days from someone wanting you to switch over to Sprint now you will
get two or three calls a night from different firms, some wanting to
sell life insurance, cemetery plots from others, and occassionally
someone sellng motor club or encyclopedias.  And you call that
progress? A step in the right directon?  :)    PAT]
