It could be any number of agencies to be honest. They give their new recruits a telephone and a database and tell them to find some contracts. With a bit of experience and confidence they are quite easy to disarm, and with a little skill you can usually avoid getting cross with each other.

I get a couple of those guys nearly every day, usually after 5:30pm and dispatch them in double quick time, this was different. He was no novice very cunning and very insistent and then very unpleasant, there was no abuse from my side, I was as poilte as I could be in the circumstances.

Don't worry. He'll be sacked and go back to his call centre. You may even get to speak to him again when you renew your car insurance
Is that allowed on here , aren't I opening up both myself and CUK to a libel suit ?
The way of avoiding a liable suit is to name by a similar rhyming word or a jokey word but of course not the actual name of the agency, see if you can guess which agencies these maybe refering to:
Hoaxley
The Krapzen Partnership
Crapita
Nicol 'Beef' Curtains.

Glad I have not had to circulate my CV in the last few years, I have largely missed out on desperate agents in the last year. Current agent told me that new business people are pissing everyone off just now.

Ah ok I get the idea now ! Yes I recognize all of these. I think I have had the misfortune to talk to every agency in the country in the last 6 months. I would take a permie role right now if I could get one just so I never have to talk to any of these barstewards ever again.

I think you'll find that the correct spelling is crapita.
