jofield How Do You Handle Telemarketers? (101* d) RE: How Do You Handle Telemarketers? 12 Feb 01


Jerry Seinfeld had a run in the old standup segment of his TV show about how he stops telemarketers to ask for their home number. They of course ask why and he says, "So I can call you up and bother you tomorrow night".

But serially, I have found that quickly interjecting a thanks for the call, then explaining that you are about to move out of the country ends the conversation right there.
