Yeah.. I caught it.. and I put my iced tea down after I read the first paragraph so I wouldn't spew...
The fact that they think women are easy to push around doesn't surprise me in the least -- but then, they've never bothered ME
Its easy for a scumbag to bully women from the protection of a telephone line - makes 'em feel like real big men I'm sure. Unfortunately, its the women who are more likely to be at home during the day, its the women who answer the phone most of the time even when the men ARE home. Its also just indicative of the overall ignorance of consumer rights and laws by the public in general.
Education and public awareness is the only way to shine the light of day on these lying scumbags.
