BLOG #8: Victory!

So you know those pesky recruiters who catch up with you at work... well I got a call from one today. After his lame pitch about jobs in pensions - zzzzzz - he said 'I understand you probably can't talk right now'.

'TOO RIGHT' I was thinking, 'Not only am I not in the market but I am also a bit peeved you have the cheek to call me at work'. I wish I'd said that outloud but instead I just said 'Oh don't worry' kicking myself for being way to nice to this guy.

He carried on... 'Can I call you on your mobile later and we can discuss further?'

Ahhhh, I sighed, here is my out... a moment to treasure and the ultimate way to get a pushy recruiter off your back 'Umm, well you could but I don't have a mobile'

*Silence*

He continues 'Seriously?'

'Yes, yes seriously. Goodbye!'

*GRIN*
