heh heh.
I belong to the "a good chap should not need to be told what a good chap should know" crowd.
For example - I would never be impolite or nasty to a child who approached me because they are not adults.
On the other hand - if someone is old enough to vote and old enough to drink then, in my universe, they are mature enough to understand what acceptable polite behavior is. If they have not bothered to learn it, I am under no obligation to be their teacher.
I am not in the least advocating intemperate or nasty or belligerent responses. I don't abuse someone for phoning me with a solicitation, I just ignore them. I merely replace the phone on the hook or press the red button on my cell phone.
If someone were to leave me an unsolicited voice mail regarding an "opportunity" I feel no sense of obligation to phone them back and say "no thanks", it would be deleted and from my end that would be that.

Now *I* disagree.
I have no problem with someone calling me or approaching me - and if
I'm not interested, I will tell them a polite "No, thank you". I
guess I belong to the "we're all members of the human race and should
be treated as such" club??
Now, if they don't take no for an answer, or call me back.....THEN my
response will be "what part of NO did you not understand??
