Doesn't that burn up a lot of time? I just cut straight to the hanging-up part, with optional cursing to taste.

Yes, it burns their time. I just put them on speaker phone and continue working as usual on my computer, occasionally uttering a "yes" or "what's that?" when they tell me for the hundredth time to go to some phishing site. It's astonishing how long it takes for them to give up.

When working from home this is one of the few joys/social interactions if the day :D
