In my starving college student days, I did a lot of call center work because I was already sick of fast food. I actually worked for one of the previously-mentioned "You won two tickets to Disney World! Just come down and listen to a time-share pitch!" places for less than a week. - They were all inbound calls that came from banner ads. - I think I got about $50, despite not making a single sale. That was the "showed up for work" bonus, the majority of the pay was for actually selling. - A "sale", from start to finish: the victim (I was desperate and didn't think of them like that until it was over) would see a banner ad online, call the phone number, and before the call ended, have given their CC and be charged a few hundred bucks. - They had a "closer" guy who would wander around and suddenly take the phone from you if it sounded like you were going to cave or weren't making progress. - The closer guy would bang a gong at the front of the room after a sale. There's plenty of things I'm not proud of from my late teens / early 20's, and that was one of them. At least I got out quickly.
