My second most horrifying job I ever held was as a tele marketer, thought it would be an easy gig selling PBA stickers.
I got a talking to on the first day, when I didn't Rebut (or push my sleazy sticker.) to people who sounded obviously older then dirt, who stated nicely, "I am on a fixed income"
I was yelled at the first day, Despite me selling 1k$ worth of the stupid stickers the next day, I was fired for not giving rebuttals on all my calls. They expect constant pressure, and I felt like dirt pushing on the elderly, as most of the calls I did were.
I was expected to be heartless, and couldn't do it.
I quit and went and earned my CDL, that crap job showed me that I better go and learn something, other than pot smoking and bar hopping.
