I'm not talking about when you get them when YOU ring it's when THEY call you about something you don't want, and I treat any Aussie voice the same if they cold call me about some bullshit I dont want

I find telemarketing as annoying as anyone, but I also feel sorry for them. It must be a terrible job. I always try to be polite, or else just hang up as soon as they begin their spiel so that neither of us wastes too much of our time.

Love it. Laughing Can't hang up on Martians, though. They'll just come over and liquidate you.

I normally give them a quote from the bible. "Go forth and multiply". I just substitute two alternate words but they normally get the picture

Just go with the classic "would you be interested in a job that involved sex and travel?"

Agreed, it's a terrible job, and anyone doing it deserves sympathy and respect. If I could get hold of their bosses, however, I'd dissolve them in acid.

My computer monitor just started turning itself off after 2 seconds of being on. Bit of research tells me it's probably an issue with 1 or more capacitors. So now I either have to buy a new monitor, keep using my sub standard spare or try and re-learn soldering and electrical repair... something I learned the bare basics of about 20 years ago.

Guess a soldering iron and some capacitors is cheaper than a new screen and the worst I can do is completely destroy it. Laughing
