 Phone Researcher Dials 'R' For Revenge | | By: Phantom | Published: 02/25/1999 | | |  |
| WINNIPEG (Reuters)
A Canadian artist has struck back at
people who were rude to him when he worked as a
telephone
marketing researcher.
Les Newman of Winnipeg, Manitoba, has opened a show at a local
art gallery that consists of pages and pages of telephone
numbers of people who were not nice when he called to seek their
opinions on various consumer products.
``The show doesn't have a title. But it's subtitled, ``All the
phone numbers of rude a------- who tried to make me feel like
s---
while I tried to make my living as a telephone market researcher
in October 1998,'' Newman told Reuters
Tuesday.
The growing amount of market research and business solicitation
by telephone in recent years has sparked some debate
among Canadians, many of whom say they resent receiving the
calls at home or at work.
``People were put on the list if they would go out of their way
to be particularly mean or rude,'' said Newman, 26.
``It's an opportunity for petty revenge,'' he said.
Newman is currently on holiday from his job. He said he was not
sure he still would have a job to
return to once his employer
heard about his art show, set to run for the next month.
