Soliciting? How much do you put up with at your front door?

    OK, I can tolerate Jw's once in a blue moon, even the Mormons, but in the past month I have had the following:

    Roof sales

    Airconditioning

    Windows

    Magazines

    Newspapers

    Frozen meat off of a truck.

    Icecream off of a truck.

    The last straw was tonight......Some teenager with his pants half down selling a sub to the newspaper I already subscribe to.....to keep him off the streets.

    I promptly let my Dobe out which set him back quite a few paces. I handed him back the newspaper and said no thank you.

    I am really Tee'd off....I just hung another sign nearer the street that says guard dog on duty. A No Soliciting sign does squat.

    Maybe do what I do with telemarketers:

    Say, "Could you hold on a minute?" Put the phone down (Or close the door).

    Then continue doing whatever you are doing.

    When you come back, they're gone!!

    Outlaw, I am sidetracking my own thread....

    How is your dog doing? Is he home, recovering and being babied? Please let me know!!!!! Do you need any meds?

    Ok back to the thread.

    I have a 'no soliciters' sign. I point to it and tell them if they're too stupid to understand the sign, then they're too stupid to do business with me.

    Purps, the vid was too funny! Thanks....

    Why anyone would want to chance a guard dog.....I'll never understand.

    A lawsuit perhaps?

    We're lucky; because of where we live, we rarely ever get solicitors. All the local dubs know our house, and have stopped coming by. It's peaceful.

    I have no sign on my door but I am so curt that I don't need one.

    Thank you for the comical relief purplesofa.
