Call center in a cubicle farm to cold call people and ask their opinions on popular songs being played on the radio. You'd play them samples of songs and ask them to rate them. Their responses were gathered for marketing research. Some people really don't like getting cold calls (myself included) especially when you're male and asking to speak "Julie" who happens to be their wife. Our time was so regulated if you were one minute late to work, returning from break, etc, mgmt would send you a message telling you to get your act together. Red flag one was having to pass a spelling test as part of the job interview.
