I work as an Appointment Setter for a major Ford dealer in my area. I call up the leads that put up inquiries online to get them to set an appointment and meet with a sales person about whatever car they inquire about. There are times I get incoming calls from the ones that look at the ads the dealership puts up about sales for new cars or for used cars and times I get rejected for appointments because of the customer having financial, credit issues and the like which is no surprise with the current economy here (what I feel about the current economic situation or any contentious stuff will be left to Fratching). This call that I made was a real gem and I mean that in every sense.

LDG: Hello?
Me: Hi, how are you?
LDG: Good and you?
Me: I'm fine. May I please speak to LDG?
LDG: Speaking. Who is this?
Me: My name is Tropicsgoddess and I'm calling from ________ to see if you're still interested in the 2008 Ford Edge and if you would like to come in, take a look and go over some options.
LDG: I'm still interested, but you would have to give me until July since I have an ignition interlock device on my current car that I can't take out.
Me: You gotta be shitting me!
Me: Wow....I'm sorry to hear that. I will make note of this on my system and I will give you a call then or you can give us a call when you're ready.
LDG: Ok, I will.
Me: Thank you for your time.
