True experience

Re: True experience

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are.....

My wife doesn't tolerate door to door OR phone sales pitches. AT ALL. I'm a little more lienient (sp?) but don't ususally let them get into their pitch too far. I realize that they are just doing their job - not that I agree with it, but it is their job. Anyway, she's straight forward - click.

When we had the dogs - she would let the "mean" one charge the door. That ususally sent them scurrying - and in a hurry.

Yep, one of Ken's lame stories coming up.

A few weeks ago, we had a rash of door to door salesmen going door to door selling anything from meat, fruit, vaccum cleaners, what have you>
Now, let me say, I do not like door to door saleman and get irritated when they ring the door bell. Now, don't think of me harshly as Girl Scouts or Boy Scouts or School organization are fine. However, Thes guys and Gals are very pushy when they ring the door bell.
Well, after several days of almost none stop salesman, this one came up and rung the door bell. The liitle bride went to the door and opened it and the guy already had the storm door open which really upsets not only me but the little bride also. He says in a southern draw(fake), Y'll don't shoot salesman in this part of the country do ya"?
Well, my darling little bride answers with an evil smiles and said,"NO".
This salesdude thinks he has it made and says agin, "Then what do you do to them"? Now that is one dumb question to be asking my little bride that usually carrys that "Dang Club" every where she goes.
With that evil smile that I am getting use to, she slams the door in the salesduude's face . Now I was looking out as she did this, and the biggest dumbest puzzled look came over his face and it took him a couple of minutes before he picked up whatever he was trying to sale us and moved on to the next house.
Well, My neigbor has been gone for 5 years visting his lovely bride in the sky and it took the dude 5 minutes before he realized there wasn't anyone there!

Now, I don't know what kind of education is required for a door to door saleman but this dude must have slept through grade school and college.
Yeper, True happening and funny!
Proud of that woman for sure.
Personally, I believe there should be open season on door to door saleman.
No offence to anyone and I apologize if I have offended anyone.
