According to the former CF member Carl Waring, they make these calls from home (I presume they get paid on commission). For some reason they aren't allowed to use VOIP, so he'll have a problem when VM eventually convert all their phone lines over to this.
It would be interesting to hear him try to sell utility supplies with his pedantic and rude interpersonal demeanour.
Perhaps you were talking to him in person
