Hi Steve,
I fully understand your point and for my part I can honestly say that say that when I am caught out by one I have never been rude or abusive, I politely say " no thankyou I"m not interested".

On the other hand as well I have had telemarketers who have been rude to me when I tell them I am not interested, and these are not isolated events either.
The best one was from a certain large banking company who told me I was stupid for not wanting to change my mortgage arrangements and sign up with them, to which I just laughed and hung up.
Everyone has a job to do I agree, and they should not be abused for it, but I am also sure that ringing in the middle of peoples dinnertime or late in the evening when people are relaxing is surely not the way to make a sale either.
