Rick Frishman and Jill Lublin in Networking Magic wrote the following on networking:
Don't linger with losers and "hangers-on"
Your time is valuable and if you let them, some people will take as much of it as you allow. They latch onto you, try to take whatever they can get that could help them, and are hard to shake. Usually, they bring nothing to the table and want so much. Furthermore, they block the path for others to approach you. Some are so insistent and persistent that they force you to be harsh and blunt. They can make you feel guilty. Learn to recognize these leeches and cut them off before they completely drain you. Be polite, but also be firm or otherwise they simply won't let go...
