Yeah it would.

Some poor sod just trying to earn a few bob so as to feed his wife and
kids, and an ignorant slob like you has nothing better to do with your
time, than to spend ten minutes taking the piss and winding him up.

If taking the piss out of or being unpleasant to cold callers leads to
the whole TeleSales Industry (ahem) becoming less profitable and
therefore less common, then I'm in favour.

Indeed, and michael adams took the trouble to read it when he could've
skipped over it, so he's like Mary Whitehouse who just watched the
kinds of programmes that would offend her for the sole purpose of
complaining about it later.
