New approach with telemarketers

I just F with them now. I know it's someones job and all but lately these people are getting agressive and rude. Just had a guy I could barely understand trying to sell me an alarm system, I told him I had one that cost 99cents a month for a 20 year contract. He said he couldn't beat that price and wished me a merry christmas.

cancel your house phone, and give your cell number to noone.

GLORIOUS.

Your State may have one too. Tennessee does - I signed up for both. It works.
