Wanna have internet service? Well do ya? You sure?

Dear At&t,
     Thank you for the call 2 weeks ago asking me if I wanted to have internet service bundled with whatever else you wanted to sell me, I thankfully replied no.  Thank you again for the call the next day asking me the exact same thing, again thanks, but no.  Hey thanks again for the call the next day, the answer is still no.  Ok day four, again, no and please don't ask, my mind isn't going to change.  Alright day five, not 1 but 2 calls, no and no.  Day six no call from At&t great they finally got the hint.  Opps day 7 comes along and another 2 calls, I just answer Hi At&t I'm not interested, I get a reply "but don't you want to hear about how I can save you money on your services?"  I reply, listen I have heard your pitch 7 times in the last week I'm not interested and stop calling me.  This paragraph can go on, lets just say day 8,9,10,11,12 all have the same results.  Heres the thing.  I understand that you took a HUGE loss this year with that Tmobile flop, like a 4 billion dollar oops, but hounding me like a 3 year old asking for candy is not going to help.  I'm sure your employees who are over seas calling me and even the ones here in the US are not to thrilled with all the no's they are getting because I know way too well that there is a manager telling these people that they need so many sales or they can look for a new job.  But really, land line in 2012? dsl at your cost and reliability?  Really?  Yellowpages?  They still print that thing?  I know you only own like 57%  and sold it for like pennies of what it was worth 5 years ago.  But come on.  Please, if I want something I'll call you back.  I have to go now my phone is ringing, I wander who it is.
