so how do you guys deal with those people who call and try to sell you something or do a survey with you? i got one of those calls tonight. i usually just hang up right away, but i thought i would try to be nice. well, i guess i was trying to be nice. i was just more like, um..i don't know..but i'm not interested...and then they were going to ask me something else and i just hung up. i don't have time for that crap. i was studying anyway. so i was just wondering if you guys just hang up like i do or you do just humer the poor soul and chat with them? and who the crap would want a job like that anyway.

You can place your number on a Do-Not-Call list online...worked fabulously for us. We used to get 4-5 calls a day. Now we get next to none.

Yeah, first put yourself on the do-not-call list (www.donotcall.org I think) and then, for those who slip through the cracks, just say, "we're not interested, and please remove us from your list. They are required to remove you at that point, and if they cal lagain, it's grounds for a harassment suit, so most people stop calling. But for those who don't, just be very firm, "I told you to remove us from your list, now please do so and do not call us again. Thank you" You can't always be nice with some people, because they will take advantage of it.
