I wish I would have gotten my camera out - it was "kirby" day in our area

My mom had the same experience. But his boss wouldn't come back. He was there for like 3 hours. I'm not sure he ever cleaned her carpet. he wouldn't leave. She kept saying, I'm on a fixed income. He just didn't get it........;-)

We had them come by once, I didn't even know what they wanted. The guy had a binder and I was on my way out with a bag of garbage in my hand. I happened to open the door in the exact moment he wanted to knock. And of course I had opened the door wide in order to get through with that big bag. He immediately stepped up and inside the house saying something like that so&so had already informed us and he was here for ... I couldn't understand him, he was mumbling so badly trying to push his way in. My husband was on the phone and didn't get at first what was going on until I started yelling at the guy to get out and tried to push him back with the garbage bag in front of me. I'm short, this guy was tall, but my husband is taller, lol. When hubby came over and towered over him and yelled at him to get out of the house or he would call the police, he finally left. Later on we saw a car drive buy and people who were similarly dressed got two boxes out of the trunk and disappeared into two neighboring houses. Then the car left. And yes, couple hours later they were standing at the curb, too. The next day, our neighbor told us who they were. We had just been utterly confused by that guys behavior. We were just glad we got him out of the house and not further inside. We thought he was an overly pushy sales person. In retrospect we should have called the police. I mean the way he tried to push me out of the way and back into the house could have almost passed as a home invasion. And now I'm so scared of something like that happening to me again that I always check double and triple before I even open the door.
