At least he got to the heart of the matter very early.  He doublechecked that he had, in fact, reached me.  Then he said he was with (Some string of three letters) Inc. and he was searching for (Some other string of letters) Inc. who was in need of a land surveyor.  Wanted to know if I was available to relocate to wherever the main office was located immediately.  Did not take long for me to say "NO".  He asked why I wasn't interested.  Told him I had been running my own busines since 1987 and had no interest in taking directions from anyone else no matter the wage offered.

I suppose I could have toyed with him for a bit by saying, "Are they truly an equal opportunity employer?"  Next would have been,"Do they provide facilities to aid the handicapped in all ways required?"  Only then letting him know that I am a paraplegic who works from a hospital bed. 😀 😀 😀 There is much I can do, but, I'm certain that I am not the ideal applicant for what they really need.
