There is this very loud saleswoman in my house right now, trying to sale my parents some sort of cleaner. She talks very fast.

She liked barged in the house after we opened the door, and she talks to fast my parents can't get a word in.
 
They went IN your house?!
They have never done that to me, but they usually get scared away as soon as my dog would come running over.
I hate them too though.
 
We don't have door to door salespeople that come to the house.
But I hate going to furniture stores.
They're on you like bees to honey.
 
They came into your house?!
I would have been pissed. lol
 

Yeah, salespeople are annoying.

But keep in mind.... this is a time of "economic crisis" and she probably has a family to support. She's just doing her job.... though it is an extremely annoying job.
 
I've never actually experienced a door to door salesperson.
Just the telemarketers.
 
I've never had door-to-door salespeople come. That would be really...weird.
 
Door-to-door salesmen/women never come inside. Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons will push their way inside. :eek:

We once had two elderly JW women try to come in thru the back door after we refused them through the front door!

:lmao: that really cracked me up.

we haven't had door to door salespeople since we lived in missouri 6 years ago..
but telemarketers annoy me!
one summer my babysitter told them my mom died so they'd stop calling...they did :p
 
I hate them in Best Buy, Macy's, Dillard's when you are trying on shoes...I hate when they watch you try on the shoes! A little privacy please. I don't like it when they hover over you and I hate people looking at my feet anyway so it's embarrassing! I yelled at one once when I was 15 at Best Buy...I told him I was looking and he still just stood there and I said I'll let you know if I need you. He just stood there looking at me so I said can you LEAVE PLEASE. He was just standing in a different area watching to see if I looked for him so I told my mom we were going to Circuit City to get my camera. It was real mature but it annoyed me.

Yea we had one of those religious people go into our FENCED IN backyard to find my mom after no one answered the front door! It's not like you can see into the backyard through the fence, it's over 6 ft high bc we have a pool and it's a privacy fence so you can't see through it yet she still felt the need to come through it.

One time I kept a guy from a satellite tv company on the phone for over an hour. I kept asking him "What if a bird dies in the dish? What if a squirrel gets killed if they hop into it? What if the snow blacks it out?" He finally said call me back when you make up your mind. :lmao: It was a waste of everyone's time but I was bored and it was seriously annoying me how much they were calling.

I now get telemarketers on my cell phone and I just answered the phone the other day and said "stop calling!" One time I whistled into the phone but they still called back. I finally called that number back and it was University of Phoenix online and just told them I was enrolled in school and to please stop calling me.

that's hilarious
i can see myself doing that :p
 
omg, I know!

There was sales person once, who would NOT stop calling my house.

So eventually, my mom answered the phone and was all "hello? Hello? HELLO?! TALK LOUDER, I CAN'T HEAR YOU! Darn electrical contraptions."

And hung up the phone. She did it with this funky, hillbilly accent too. It was the most hilarious thing ever. :laughing:
 
Funny thing was, the soap she was selling was $160 per gallon.

Holy crap. :scared:

We still joke about this one salesman who pushed through the door, grabbed a shoe that was inside our house and using his spray to clean it up. Then he cleaned the door jamb, and started to clean more and more inside the house before my mom was all, "uh, no thanks, personal space please." Then he sprayed some on his tongue to demonstrate how it's natural-ness. :crazy2:

YES! She took my mom's shoe and sprayed crap all over it, and then it just smeared the dirt. I was laughing my *** off. Then she started cleaning the window and jumping up and down that we had a pool.

I dislike salespeople in general. When I worked at the shoe store, I hated when my boss would force me on people. It's like, hello, I know they need space.

Hahaha, I've talked in hillbilly accents too. I also try and talk in the most foreign sounding accent I think I can do. My brother is awesome at middle eastern accents but I can never get him to do it on telemarketers. I usually just make my voice really high and act like I'm from some european country that can't be identified.

The Mormon people in my town are really friendly. But that's probably because we live in a Mormon town...
