Dismissal of a telesales caller

 Caller : hello!  I'm calling from [public service directory name] ... we supply information for organisations in the public sector to buy from, including... 

Me : Sorry, not interested. 

Caller: Don't you do any work for the public sector?

Caller:  Oh. 

Me: Goodbye.

* which is not to say that ALL public sector web projects are pointless, but on past experience, any that I am asked to quote for almost certainly will be.
