Got an unsolicited telemarketing call from the American Lung Association yesterday. The woman assured me quickly that they were not asking for money, so I held on a few more seconds... until she told me that I could help them out immensely if I would just send sixteen letters to my neighbors on [insert my street name]... OMG. So they want me to do their fundraising for them? It's one thing if I volunteer for that, but to cold-call me and ask me to do it? We have no previous association with the American Lung Association (no walkathons, no relatives, no donations) and now, I am pretty sure we never will.
