I am running fast down the track to have a major heart attack. This happens every time a Telephone Marketer Rings me. My heart races I become irate beyond all reason.
Heaven be praised ( if there is a heaven but that’ s another discussion for another day)I have now come up with a very satisfying solution.
I respond politely ask them to explain what they are ringing for and place the receiver down on the desk. I leave it there for about an hour. Then hang up. It has now become the highlite of my day and often am tempted to listen to their speil and confusion when no one answers them. I now keep a pile of hankerchiefs near the phone to stuff into my mouth to gag the laughter. Try it and have some fun. I would lo ve to hear how others deal with this irksome invasion into their homes.

grest to leave them hanging. I somtimes wind them up by pretending to be wildly interested and then tell them that I am selling the same goods myself and would they like some at a knockdown price better than they can offer themselves
