Quoting 'jengirl' They're people doing a SHITTY job who just want to pay their bills. I've been a telemarketer lol, though I have to admit it was some time ago. We had a list of people not to call similar to the idea of the, 'Do Not Call', register I mentioned at the end of my OP. I do know there are limitations to the register and take that into account ;-) We are on the register though and my way of dealing with uninvited calls is to politely make sure they know we are on the register and not interested in doing business over the phone. It is incredibly rare to get someone who accepts my answer with good grace though there was a lovely lady I remember recently who was wonderful.Thanks... Mrs P'

One that always gives me great joy is to adivse them immediately that I charge for unsolicited phone calls. And if they wish to continue they must provide me with the company name and postal address so i can send them a tax invoice for my time. I then kindly advise a charge in six second intervals at a rate of $4.69 per.s six seconds... and by the way you already owe me $46.90... what was that postal address again?? lolz The best thing is it can be an enforcable contract and you can actually charge the bastards...!

For me I have to go with the following line.'Guten tag, hier ist Fritz.' I generally follow that with 'Amerikaner?' No-one has called me back, ever. I occasionally go with other names, but Fritz is a favourite. I may have mispelled it, it's been a while since I had to look at anything German. I get a laugh, and I don't cause too much trouble for them. I think it's win win.

In best Punjab accent "can I speak to the business owner or manager please?" to which I reply, "no he is busy at the moment hiding under his desk sucking his thumb saying no more telemarketers over and over, what have you people done to him? I think he's going to sue" clunk.... They hang up. Other times I say the owner is on a different number and give them a sex line number to call or a local brothel if the local newspaper is handy. Once I said "please wait" then came back with "Helloooooo.. this is Osama Bin Laden.. Who is calling?" clunk...

...However not quite on the telemarketing line but about 9 yrs ago while living in a different city I opened the door in a silk dressing gown to a religous group knocking only to have the gown come undone and my naked body being shown to them. Hmmm they never did come back...I dont think I am that bad naked and NO before I get any requests - you cant see Kisses Focus

I get them at work all the time and I just humour them and let them go through their whole sales package, then when they come to closing I just stick put the phone down on the table and sit there listening to them on speakerphone, if they realise something's wrong and they say 'excuse me sir' or whatever more than 3 times, i'll answer again and tell them there was a problem with the phone, then i'll just go quiet again.Sometimes I'll make up a story about the boss being away on his boat and tell them to call back another time, when they do I tell them he's out again and we usually get chatting about how he's never at work etc and I just spin them some crap. Keeps me sane during the day.

between cursing them and their existence, and feeling sorry for the poor shmuck stuck on the phone, hating life, and doing something everyone hates and getting paid zilch for the dubious privilige of holding down that job.
