For the most part I don't have a problem with telemarketers, they are annoying, yes and always call at the worst time, but I just say thank you, I'm not interested and they thank me for my time and hang up.

Of course there's always the few who persist, usually charities looking for donations. I actually had some guy collecting money for children in africa get mad at me for not donating. And my alma mater had the nerve to ask me why I wouldn't donate - my money matters and reasons for not donating are no one's business but my own.
