Anger and Frustration

I have been advertising on ebay and the local Pennysaver for the washable feminine pads that i sell. It has been frustrating with no phone calls. I sew an excellent product that I have been using myself for 2 years. I recently offered this for sale. It is a very green product, cost effective, convenient, and healthier than disposable sanitary pads. There is no natural rubber latex in them. Most disposables contain latex. Two friends have suggested that I start a website for this. I don't want to go really big, but I may have to do this. At this point in time, I have received no phone calls from the local ad and no purchase from ebay. I also used Craig's List. This has gotten to be very frustrating for me. Just now I received a phone call from what sounded like a young man. The call was bordering on obscene. I told him he obviously didn't want to make a purchase, and hung up. I have received calls like this long ago. They are still unnerving. I am a nurse, unable to work any longer because of a life threatening allergy to natural rubber latex. I have had sexual harrassment from patients and coworkers. This isn't something to get use to or be comfortable with. I also get angry that some people have nothing better to do because their brains are the size of peas. Their IQ is about 5. Now I wish I had told the caller to get his rocks off with someone else. I think this call has helped me to make my decision. Sal
