19:53 - FAIL. This is after a $20. each tip. Some people are never happy and will always think the wrong thing.

As far as brandishing my weapon, I don't care for them to break in for that, too. Thanks anyway.

I guess I live in a boring neighborhood. The only people who knock are neighbors, a guy asking about trash and the (hot) Fedex man.

OMG!! This is ridiculous! 2 effing hours your friend will never get back. The funny part is the sales girl called her boss in front of your friends, how professional!


Thought talking to management is part of the sales performance. To make it seem like they are offering you a great price.

I wish you were my neighbors! Mine like to knock on the door at the worst times. Go away!!!

I never do, in Cleveland Park we get them all the time. I had heard from a neighbor that they are sometimes going door to door to canvas the scene for a possible break in. To kind of see who is home at what time. If I were you do not feel guilty not answering the door. We do not live in the times of Mayberry anymore where honest sales people peddle their wares.

I have a sign that says: night shift workers, do not knock. If it is not an emergency, it will be when I wake up.

Surprisingly, no one knocks. It's great.

If they do, I answer the door. Armed. Simple.

I just don't have the time to get into it with a salesperson, and if you p*ss them off, I'm sure they wouldn't mind coming back to your house sometime with bad intentions.

We had a delivery one day and the next morning we had three shattered windows on our new cars. No thanks.

PP, why are you so interested where this is? Its not one place. You do realize that, right? Why would anyone in their right mind publicize where it is?

You people don't sound very bright. Keep opening that door, though.


Maybe you need to be nicer to the delivery guy/lady.
