No. I can not say this strongly enough.

In the 1990s, before the modern internet and before surveys were offered online, I worked for a market research company in San Diego.

It did not matter that we were only asking people to do surveys, not asking for money. I was hung up on or cursed. Very few people were willing to talk. I hated going to work each day but it was the only job I could find at the time.
