when the phone salesman calls, try to sell him something instead: "no, but can i
interested you in....?" or ask if he will barter for chickens, goats, etc. more
fun.

i don't even wait that long. when i answer the phone and there is a long
pause, i hang up immediately. i had previously noted that all the
telemarketers calls had that pause. i guess it's due to the fact that most of
those services have been out-sourced to india and the like.

it's mostly due to the larger telemarketing outfits running automated dialling
systems. machine calls a series of numbers, and when it gets a pick-up (that
isn't a fax or modem) then it dumps the live call into the "available agent"
pool.
next poor sap teleslave then gets the call dumped to his headset so he can
reel off his script.
