OK who else is pissed at these freaking people from Great American Dessert Expo calling every 3 hours claiming that they're still affiliated with the CoffeeFest* and begging you to buy admission tickets??

They keep calling my cell phone @ that!

Not just that but after attending the Coffee Fest Atlanta (which was tons of fun by the way) I noticed all these companies were "cold calling" me and saying I gave them my number at their booth when I KNOW full well I didn't !!
It's pretty low and poor business practices. Something needs to be done about this.


* What they're really doing is dropping the CoffeeFest's name and saying "this is the great american dessert who showed with coffeefest last year" they say it in a vague way to make u think they're still affiliated.

The best was when one of our competitors called for me to try to get me to enroll in their barista school. Ha!

That's funny! I keep getting these e-mails, "Thanks for stopping by my booth! It was nice to meet you." And I am like, uh, hello, I work for a roaster, why would I go to your booth. I know I didn't go to your booth, and I have never met you. Leave me alone. (But more politely.)
