I like this approach. I thought I might string them along and as they
close tell them that I just had to ask the permission of the person
who looks after me as I wasn't allowed to use sharp objects or money.
I think I got this from Jack Lemon in Glengarry Glen Ross.
However in the end I just got rid of my BT line because I hate them too.
