Telemarketers

Usually when they call, I do one of the following, in order:
  • Be nice and say no thank you, and if they don't give up, I hang up.
  • Fly off the handle when they get Pink's gender wrong. "Hello, this is XYZ, is Mr. Pink Pamphlet available?"
  • Give the phone to Little Blue
  • If it's an autodialer just confirming that your picking up the phone, I usually whisper in earshot of Pink, "Look, I know, I know, but I told you not to call me here, okay?" (She's since picked up on this and has been doing it back on occasion)

But I'd never considered doing this.

Heh. That's a pretty good one. I almost felt sorry for the telemarketer. Almost.
