Default How to handle telemarketers

Damn, you guys sound like a bunch of junior high school kids, playing

you...

Just hang up the f*cking phone! How hard is that, anyway?


That's exactly what they want you to do. Get you off the phone as
quickly as possible so they can move on to a more likely prospect.
Time is money to them.

If you want to facilitate their business model, by all means "hang up
the f*cking phone."

As for me, they're going to pay to bother me. They may not pay me, and
it wouldn't be much anyway, but no one wastes my time for free.
