All cold-calling and door-to-door should be illegal.
I worked in sales for a few years in Ins. incoming calls only.
*dingdingding* failed salesperson alert.

failing salesperson: This sucks, my production is way down and I can't get it to turn around.

salesmanager: Have you thought about asking someone to buy?

failing salesperson: I'd like to but the phone hasn't made a noise all day.

salesmanager: Have you thought about either calling someone, or going to meet someone?

failing salesperson: No! That is beneath me, I'm done here.

*sound of door closing behind failed salesperson*

- that being said there is a huge difference between cold/warm calling and being a telemarketer.
