Marine phone recruiters

[Wadded Beef]

Just got another call from the marines trying to recruit me, what's the most effective way to say no to these guys?? Something that'll make them cross me off their calling list for good hopefully...

Just tell them you're gay. They won't call you back.

haha i'll try that next time

Tip: It just pisses them off when you ask them to do their best Nicholson impersonation of "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"

 

[OutHouse]

just tell them you joined the coast guard and leave for basic next week.

 

[cjgallen]

Tell them you're missing an arm.

 

[MidasKnight]

Go down there and have an interview with them.

 

[Wadded Beef]

the recruiter asked me where i go to school and after telling him the guy says "how come you never come to visit us across the street?" (they have a recruiting center across the street from my school) wtf was i supposed to say to that? i just said because i have no interest in joining...

 

[Colt45]

say you are a 300lb gay man, and ask if there are any hot guys you'd be working beside.

 

[Red Dawn]

They are getting desperate as they along with the Army haven't come close to meeting their quaterly quota of new recruits.

it worked for me.

 

[Wadded Beef]

haha i could tell them i'm morbidly obese and bed-ridden, though they can knock down a wall and transport me on a flatbed truck...btw i'm 6'3" and 130lbs lol

 

[silverpig]

What's a battle?

 

[preslove]

Tell them that Marines are way to gay for you... and then taunt them some more.

i don't think they'd recruit you at that weight. I'm 6'3" and 160lbs, and people call me skinny. You're emicated.

yeah i go to pcc, and afaik they have a recruiting station nearby, though i don't go looking for it

 

[SacrosanctFiend]

Tell them you have SVT, that's what I did.

 

[Schadenfreude]

The gay option sounds really good - actually, I'd say fvck with them a little - don't bring it up, but on the background, have one of your friends, in a flaming gay voice, say something explicitly gay, and you reply in a flaming voice:

Of course when you get back on the phone, suddenly change the tone of your voice and say "oh, *cough* sorry sir, what were you saying?"

If you're serious, you have some sort of problem.

Well they raised the recruiting limit to 40 and they are offering incentivies in excess of $15,000 to sign. Problem is everyone knows now that with the stop-loss stuff in effect if you sign they won't ever let you quit. They've talked about dropping their HS diploma requirement for the first time since 'nam, that's how bad it is.

dont forget to add your iraqi

You know, asking them to remove you from their list actually works wonders.
