Note to cold callers...

If you turn up on my doorstep at noon on a day when I have called in sick to work because I woke up with a migraine (and let's not get into the fact that my staying up till 2.30am probably contributed to that, shall we?), claiming 'not to be selling anything', then please don't get offended by my shutting the door in your face.

I have no obligation to talk to you, particularly when you appear to be bunking off school to do whatever not-selling thing it is you're doing. Not interested. Not even slightly. You should consider yourself lucky I wasn't also verbally abusive and count your blessings.

That is all.
