Why do you want to get rid of them? If a recruiter calls, I politely say that 
I'm not interested at this time.

Depending on the context, I may politely explain that assembler programmer and 
assembly line technician are very different skill sets, and that the skills 
don't transfer well in either direction. No, I did not make this up, and it 
isn't a one-time thing.

Every time a recruiter calls me I have a sure way get rid of them and
increase what they need to pay.



They ask me if I'm Steve, and I say yes



Then I tell them "Are you calling me with a job that pays $125/HR W2 or
$210,000 perm?"



You hear them fade or die on the other end then I hang up.
