Actaully since the do not call list, it's gotten much better.

Before that though, we have cordless phones with headsets. I'd get a call and let them go on and on, lead them on. Then either hang up or really give it to them.

Like the travel agency selling packages that wanted me to drive down (local), offered 50 bucks in cash for gas and a tivo. "Well I don't get cable will it work with tv..............", then "Well I don't have a drivers license can you send someone to pick me up "..................

Or the siding place, sure send 'm out for an estimate, the guy pulls up and looks at me, it's brand new. "I know, but I want a good estimate, or I report you to the BBB !!!" Guy spent 20 minutes measuring, and another 20 with a calculator. Although my best friend out did that, when he had a siding guy out to his dads ............ BOAT !!!!
