Just got a call from a charity (I think it was Concern Worldwide) trying to get me to start donating to them again. I think I made my stance reasonably clear: Her: Just to give you some idea of the scale of the problems around the world, at the moment over 2.5 million people are displaced in darfur- Neko: Well, sorry to hear about that, but I'm at work right now - could we try another time? Her: Oh, sorry - yes, I'll call again later... But, just in case they don't deal in subtlety, I want some more obvious terms to use if they call back later. So what should I say to them to make myself clear?  |
