I pick it up, wait for them to start talking, tell them to hang on a sec and walk away... for like 5-10 minutes. Most call centres don't let them hang up unless they can prove (when the call is reviewed) that no one is there. I just yell at the phone randomly and s*** so they have to stay on.
I mean, I need some entertainment as I feed the dog and cats, right? :P
f*** 'em. Cold calling isn't a job, it's paying someone to harass people. If they won't give me their number so I can call them back, I tell them if they do it again I'll conference call them with the local police station as I advise I'll be filing harassment charges.
I don't get many calls later, either. :D
These guys are as bad as the new booths at the mall with the damn s***ty cell phone gadgets... they actually come storming at you, trying to get your attention. I walked around a chick once... she was like "what are you doing?"
"I'm trying to figure out how to mark you as spam". :lol: :lol:
