    I had one of these, it may not have too much of a fishing call as they had sent me a job spec as well. The person at the other end kept banging on if I wanted the position or not and what would my rate be and so on. In the end I just gave a rather high rate (for them anyway) and it all went quiet and then started up again. In the end I just said 'NO, I DO NOT WANT THIS POSITION, I AM WORKING AND YOU CANNOT PAY MY RATE, PLUS THE CONTRACT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY SKILLSET SO BUGGER OFF.'
    Do you think they understood you?
