All I'm hearing is you passed up a perfectly good opportunity for a menage a trois

These bugs are crawling from under the woodwork.
Scams are everywhere in an economy such as we have now.

Not fun to teach motivation. Also not fun to teach very basic human behavioral expectations though.

Yeah frick all that. I hate a door to door salesman in general, but if you are knocking that late at night, you can sure as hell screw off.
Only late night experience I’ve ever had like that was one of those meth heads with a freezer in their truck selling steaks pulled up in my driveway at 9:00 one night trying to do his sales pitch.

I remember when door to door sales were built on the promise of encountering the occasional lusty housewife answering the door while wearing only a towel.

Bad idea unless you are selling bullet proof vests.

I will answer with gun in hand just out of sight. Just long enough conversation to let them know we aren’t interested. Not rude… but curt. Rude starts if they don’t immediately leave.

It’s 2024 there’s almost zero reason anyone should be knocking on my door unexpectedly.

I'll ask my butler how he handles these situations.

frick that. My dog would’ve raised pure hell and woken up my kids. I would be pissed. I would let the dog out. She might not bite him but she might.

I think that's illegal

Sometimes I go to bed when it’s still daylight. I wouldn’t be too happy.

I had one who knocked on my door at 10:00 PM on a Friday when he earlier that week knocked on my door about my security system at around 5:00 PM, but he had another guy with him and said he could lower my bill by $15 a month. I’m in sales, so I figured I’d at least hear him out knowing how people can be dicks and he might have a product I’d be interested in.
Then I just realized he wasn’t a good person but a snake oil salesman, and said I had to sign now for it or he couldn’t make that deal again. I call bullshite and say if his product is as good as he says that he wouldn’t mind if I waited two or three days to make an educated decision. He then insulted me saying he thought I was smart enough to know a lifetime deal when I saw one and left with his coworker. fricking dick who couldn’t sell shite and I just heard him out because I was nice.
Well 10:00 PM Friday I had some friends coming over for some cocktails, smoking pot, and watching a movie and the doorbell rings. I go downstairs, and it’s not my friend, but that fricking a-hole again and this time alone. He immediately says “Hey, saw that your lights were on and sorry I was a dick the other day but I had to show the guy I was training how it’s done. Now let’s go talk about your security system upstairs and I can give you a hell of a deal.”
This time he had the misfortune of running into me already half in the bag, pissed off, and this is the single biggest a-hole sales move I’ve ever seen so I lit into his arse: “Listen you fricking a-hole, don’t you fricking knock on my door trying to sell me shite at 10:00 PM on Friday or any night. In fact you better not come here again. You’re the biggest a-hole salesman I've ever seen, and I wouldn’t purchase from you if you were trying to sell me the Fountain of Youth.” Then just slammed the door in his face.

I live I the city of Baton Rouge - I don’t answer the door at 10pm, or any other time of the day

Magazine sales? By chance?
Scam. They can get violent too.
