When should an agency take a hint?

[pmeswani]

Had something like 4 or 5 phone calls from the same agency over a period of 4 working days asking if I am available for work. On each occasion I tell them I am working and not available for something like 3 months. When will they take the hint that I am not available until my current contract is over?

They aren't phoning you for your benefit you know.

Send anthrax in the post. That should do it.

they're just phoning a list of numbers and reading from a card.

you could answer in a different language and they would'nt flinch.

They'd still say... "so what's your rate?", "who was your last manager at yourclient"

Damn those pesky potential customers wanting your business!

Find a mate who is available and charge them a referral fee. Simples

Fortunately, I am working for the customer that they are calling me about, and they don't need to tell me about the job or even the location. I only know this because of the project I am working on.

Maybe they're looking for your replacement.
