This is the second time I've posted about this, and at least the fifth time it has happened.
Man rang up, asking me to send him a catalogue of our military titles. All good, happy to do so. He then asks if he gets a free book with it? I say no, obviously. Most of our titles are £25 RRP, so we don't hand them out like candy. He starts trying to flatter me. Clearly my voice makes me sound like an innocent little girl straight from her first dance. Denied. Eventually he pulls the inevitable line.
'With this recession, I'm surprised you're turning away potential business.'
Idiot. In this recession we don't give away merchandise for free.
