Grr

I very much dislike door to door salesmen. first of all, they are always, ALWAYS interrupting soemthing when they decided to ring the bell, and second, we have a very large dog who goes bat shit crazy when the boll tings, and that makes life pretty hellish .

The other night, yes NIGHT, it was after 9pm in the evening a door to door salesman rang our bell, setting off both the dogs and waking up Logan, our five year old. if that wasn't bad enough, they wanted to sell us a security system, and when Micah pointed to the wall where our wireless security systems were set up, they refused to take that as a no and leave but continued to try and talk us into upgrading. Finally, Micah let his grip go from our big dogs' collar - she was growling and barking like mad the whole time, and told the salesman that she - pointing at the dog now standing protectively between Micah and the sales man, growling - was the ONLY security system we need, and shit the door in his face.

How RUDE can people get? Why on earth would a salesman think that we would be willing to listen to his pitch when, number one, he comes at such a LATE time, and number two, refuses to take no for an answer.

I can tell you one thing, I will remember his company's name and recommend to ALL my friends not to buy from him!

Sorry Phinz , that was a spam comment I hadn't gotten around to deleting. i did email the company, with the salesman's name, not that I expect any response!
