I HATE phonebanking
If I never have to do it again, I'll be a happy woman. I have an irrational fear of talking to people or something. I wanna give props to all of you who have the patience to do it. You're doing great work. :yourock:

1. phone bank
I agree-I've probably made about 4-500 calls and am done-I've volunteered to take people to the polls on election day, so I figure that's a way that I can better help the campaign

2. I'm not cut out for it
"What do you mean, you're not voting for Kerry, you fucking fool?! Were you born stupid, or did you study? Do you really want four more years of - hello? Hello, are you there?" I'm not exactly the ideal point man for Kerry.

3. i would so much rather go knock doors or sumpin,
but with COPD the options are limited, and if i end up in dante's 4th circle of hell or however it works i'll end up phonebanking. i know exactly what you mean, but, this year, we do what we gotta do, right?

i swear, i'd rather have major oral surgery done badly if that'd help...

5. Me too..there's just something about talking to people on the phone
that scares the crap out of me. I've had my share of bad experiences though, so I guess my fear is justified.
