I called to get some prices on a local storage facility in Phoenix. I was speaking with George. He was professional at first and gave me some prices on a few locations. However, as soon as I told him that all of the facilities he offered were too far away from me, he hung up on me as I was right in the middle of a conversation with him and I was still talking.
