hhhkkk hhhkkk Hallo? Is this the party to whom I am speaking? This isn't the phone company, but I do need to talk to you - Are you a smooth talker, do you have a golden voice, can you direct an outbound call and reach the end product? If so, we need you. We have the need to make a large volume of outbound calls to the homebound and socially isolated and we need your help to get to them.
