So, my buddy worked for a “Work From Home” outbound call company, I used to work for them as well, and part of their training is “If a customer says anything that can even be construed as 'Stop calling me', then you say 'have a good day' and you list them as Do Not Call.” This is obviously due to the very strict laws here in the US that you cannot solicit someone who has requested that you not call them.

He did as instructed and found out that he was being reprimanded in his messages by his boss, stating he needed to “rebuttal” these Do Not Calls and try to get them to stick on the line. He messaged me and I told him to save as much as he can and report it to his management. As what she was asking was a clear breach of policy and the law.

They literally, verbally said that his request to join another team due to feeling the request made was unethical was part of their reasoning for releasing him from his position.

So reddit, what are your recommendations on his next step?
