Am I the only person that feels these people could very well be the Antichrist in different forms?  Heres a true story;

Some blond chick shows up to my house right before I get home from work months ago.  She offers my wife a free carpet cleaning which to my wife (sadly) says "sure".  Needless to say I was a bit p**sed about that because I would have told them to "go screw".  Well anyhow, our carpet was dirty so I figured what the hey I'll sit through a sales pitch which I was anticipating. 

The blond bimbo and  this jack off wearing a clip on tie show up later and announces they is with the Kirby Vacuum company.  An hour or two later, we did end up with a clean rug.  Still, this mother f*cker did everything he could to shell out the piece of sh*t vacuum for...brace yourself...$1800.00!!!  They dude was completly unprofessional and we had to yell at him a few times not to put product parts on furniture.  After much bickering, I kicked him out to the curb.

Moral of the story;  DON'T EVER OPEN YOUR DOOR TO KIRBY VACCUM SALES PEOPLE!  I laughed out loud when I check this site about their business practices.  Funny thing too, a friend of hers called today and said they had them clean the carpets too.  They called the cops after the guy kept going on and on.

I also can't stand Jehovah's when they come to the door.  I've slammed a few doors in their faces over the years.

So do you have any salesmen stories?

I have a friend who tried selling Kirby vacuum cleaners door to door several years ago.
He didn't last long at it.
His main complaint was the high pressure sales tactics that Kirby trains their reps to use.
That, and having doors slammed in his face all the time.

Those Kirby's are crazy expensive!   :buggedout:
I don't care how good a device it is.  No vacuum cleaner should ever cost $1500 to $2000.
The prices of consumer goods are already high enough.  The last thing people can afford is to spend $1800 for a vacuum cleaner.

Personally, I could never sell things door to door.

Tonight, a salesman came to my door and rang the bell at 6:15pm which I consider within the "dinner hour" (a 2 hour span in my mind from 5 to 7pm).  I was, in fact, having my dinner.  Though my front door was open, and the all-glass storm door locked to let the light in, and also to let my Francine lay in the threshold as she's wont to do, she was not there when this poor slob salesman rang my bell, so I simply walked behind the door and shut it... CLUMP.  Well, that poor young guy ran off right quick, across the street to my neighbor's house... poor guy.  They let him in...!   Bwaah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!! 

There was a group going around town that has a similar scheme, except it was carpet cleaner, , found out later they were connected to a rash of burglaries. Seems when YOU are looking at the carpet, THEY were looking at all your expensive stuff. .

A friend of mine used to always answer the door completely nude with the exception of a strategically placed sock ( :wink:) when Jehovah's Witnesses would wake him and his girlfriend up on the weekends.

don't miss the documentary "salesman".  It's from the 60's.  It's about these door to door bible salesman and tring to get all these poor catholic people to by these fancy overpriced illustrated bibles.

Hey it could be worse.  I remember an episode of the show Taxi where all the drivers got laid off for a while. They got together later to tell each other what they'd been doing to to survive.

When they get around to Reverand Jim (Christopher Loyd). Jim tells about his door-to-door sales gig. 

He arrives at a ladies apartment and starts telling of the great wonders the vacuum he's selling. To demonstrate he proceeds to dump dirt on the carpet, then follows it up with a pan of grease from the stove and some wine.

When he goes to open the vacuum cleaner box a it's full of books.  He suddenly realizes he took the job selling encyclopedias instead of vacuum cleaners!


Actually, I don't like being interrupted by these guys, but in some way I feel sorry for them because they are sold a bill goods by those companies.

We have a big problem with door to door pandlers in the area. I have a sign on my door that says 'no jehovas'. Unfortunately it doesn't dissuade them often. My brother has his own way of dealing it..usually he'll let them on the front porch and stand there very respectable-like till they get to the question, "Would you like some free literature on the true way of life?" This is when Clint replies, "No, but you can have some of mine..." Then he shoves some David Lane fliers into thier arms and slams the door. They usually don't come back...

The JW's used to come by here regularly.  I think the lady we bought the property from was a member.

One time: two nice prim little ladies were giving me the spiel.  (Why oh why did I answer the door?)  They did not pick up on my repeated yet polite hints that the conversation was over (big surprise eh?).  I was stuck.  Then when they started in on selling me a copy of their 'new' Bible:  "Wouldn't you like to read the Words as they were ACTUALLY WRITTEN?"  -  I heard myself exclaim, "WOW! You can read ARAMAIC??? That is SO cool!"

Shortly after, two very confused little ladies shuffled back down off my steps and drove away.  They stayed away for over a year.  Sigh.  One of my better moments.

Poor Catholic people??  Are you tipping your hand there?  Bible buyers'd more likely be Baptists, Pentecostals, even Methodists, or well,... Not no Catholic.  Well, then again, we are all a buncha hypocrites.  :buggedout:

We had some Mormon Missionaries renting next door, , young guys, probably 20 and a couple at MOST. Pretty cool, but they said distinctly that they don't solicit in the neighborhood they live in, causes too much drama. They weren't allowed Computers, TVs, but they swore, , mildly. I think I offered them some tequila, but I'm not sure, don't remember them rejecting, and they surely didn't accept. They did for some reason, drive like @$$holes though, , I thought that was odd.

We did the "answer the door naked" trick on the JWs once, , they called the cops, , apparently that's illegal in Ohio. Funny because allegedly necrophilia was NOT outlawed, , but answering your own front door naked WAS at the time.

BTW, , just for the record, , and since this is the off-topic board, , , Amish women are pretty good in the sack, , just thought I'd put that out there.

Well you know thouse Amish chicks, total skanks.

I told  a Jehovha that I had a religion. I first asked him in...sat him down...and gave him coffee. I Told him I didn't believe in anything but here and now. I tried to convince him to "Free himself". In truth...I had no f#cking clue about what I was talking about....I was just messing with his head. He left when I started talking nonsense about Charlie Manson. I've seen enough Charlie movies that I can put a pretty convincing Charlie rap on....

....yeah....it was wrong. But I was bored. And I was young....and a wee evil myself,I reckon.

Grrr  :hatred: I hate it when I get hounded in the street by them all and all the black tag, latter day saint, brainwashed freaks! Last time I went shopping in Preston, there were theses two dudes who kept wanting me to stop and chat to them about that jesus christ superstar dude. I got mad, real mad and I used my usual "I kill children and fry them and eat them and I suck Satan's love pump all night long"....that shuts 'em up!  :teddyr:

I once ran into a particularly interesting character outside Glasgow University Library. This bearded southern chap came up to me literally brandishing a Bible and singling me out for his screed. I politely told him that I was happy with my faith but this merely seemed to frustrate the poor fellow. He then launched into a tirade that I must "Repent, REPENT!!!". Weirdly, this seemed to impress my two so-called 'friends' who smiled approvingly at him!
