I'm sure many of you have or are involved in businesses, do you also get bombarded with ink cartridge sales calls?
It's crazy, where do they all come from?

Them and those Damn Stock broker cold calls...here is what I do...Usually most sales people are reading from a script so I will do one of two things, I put the phone down and continue what I was doing just barely being able to hear them on the speaker, as soon as they stop talking I tell them I was busy and wasnt really listening and ask them to repeat it again, if they dont hang up then and they repeat it agian I say the same thing and they will definatly hang up...Also as they are scripted you can start asking off the wall questions like "What are the chemical breakdowns of the ink?" Or "If I accidentally drank the ink would I get sick? When I try to pass the ink will it come out Blue?" They will usually get the message and hang up....
For Newspaper salesmen, I let them do their speel and at the end I tell them Im not interested, they like to argue so I finally make them feel like ship and tell them that Im blind and unless the newspaper comes in Braille Im not interested...
I do not like salesmen at all, If I need something I will call you...
