I agree..
with the fact that it's annoying.

But I worked in a telesales place a couple of years back, and god I hated it. It is by far the most soul destroying thing I've ever done. We (the operators) don't choose to call you in particular, you're just the next name on our list. Shouting "Fuck Off" at us won't endear you, it just makes you sound like a cunt.

Please, just cut us off at the start with "No thankyou, not interested" and that's brilliant!

Then again, the best call I ever had (the one that got me sacked) was a half hour biblical discussion with a retired man, who was obviously very lonely. Was ace!
