Worse than my recent call!!

DH opens it to find a young man trying to sell us something...not exactly sure what because we didn't let him speak before slamming the door in his face!! But can you believe that??? I say this is far worse than the telemarketer call I got earlier!! Coming around to someone's door at 9pm???!! I wanted to shout at him and say "kids are sleeping you idiot!!!" I'm sure he won't get many good responses from all the moms in my subdivision.
mummy2girls replied: How flipping rude of that guy!!!!!! DOH!
mammag replied: Ooh I would have been mad too! I just wouldn't have answered the door though. That's what I do now, if I'm not expecting them, I don't answer.....whether they see we are home or not.
mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Yeah, I probably wouldn't have opened it either, but DH jumped up and opened it. And he politely said "we're eating dinner"...he's so funny! I never see him get mad! I on the other hand was about to chase him down with a rolling pin...thank god DH closed the door too fast!
holley79 replied: I'm sorry but that is very rude not to mention unlawful. I would have contacted the Sheriff's Office. He could have possibly been "scoping" out houses. Sorry I have worked for the SO too long and don't trust too many people.
MM'sMama replied: How rude! I would have been SOO mad too. Geez!
And Holley thats a scary thought Rea please be careful
gr33n3y3z replied: That was very rude and I'm sure he got the door slamed in his face many of times last night
holley79 replied: It is a very scary but real thought. Now a days it is just not safe to open your door to just anyone. Peep holes are important. I don't open my door unless I know who is on the other side. There are too many cases of home invasions anymore.
I hope that everyone here stays safe.
MyLuvBugs replied: There seriously needs to be rules and regulations for door-to-door sales people and telemarketers. Why do they have to bug ya after 7:00pm at night. That's just rude!
A&A'smommy replied: OMG I would have been pissed too!!! Maybe you should have called the police he REALLY should NOT be going out to peoples houses that late especially in this day its just too dangerous and not for him for you and YOUR child!!
CantWait replied: ya I'd be steaming also. I can't believe someone would have the nerve to come around that late at night. Good for you guys for slamming the door in his face first off.
C&K*s Mommie replied: Since telemarketers cannot call after 9:01pm -- maybe someone became wise & decided to show up on your front stoop up until 9:01p. HOW RUDE, though!! Good for your DH!! Sale or no sale-- I would never do that!!
