Working in politics

[California8429]

I once had a nice 15 minute conversation with a very old lady who said she usually doesn't take political calls, but wanted someone to talk to. And mistook a former Governor's stance on euthanasia as him saying "all you old people, have to die, so there are jobs for the young people". Also on my first day as an intern in 2010 a women just cussed for 15 seconds non stop about getting phone calls and then hung up (it was only August...). Someone thought I was from the county courts and she thought her son was arrested or dead and had a panic attack. Another guy yelled at me for a few minutes saying I was a socialist (while working for a very tea party slate of candidates) and then at the end said, you're doing a good job keep it up and hung up.
