i love to put signs on my door saying i work nights. its an invitation for a good old nighttime robbery

Always knock first.

I know I hate it when people bang on my door for money, people who work nights don't get it easy and if we wanted a Christmas calendar, we'd go to the store... Js

I say YDI because OP shouldn't have gone door to door soliciting for donations to begin with. Why? Because he has no f*cking clue what kind of schedule those people are on and it's not the peoples responsibility to announce their visiting schedule to the entire world. It's a private residence, so no one should have to hang a sign stating that they want privacy. People really shouldn't be rude enough to come by completely unannounced, begging for money or trying to sell stuff. Not only that, people collecting for charity or people preaching their religion often ignore posted signs with the thought that "Well, this is for charity/salvation. That's not really solicitation." Door to door solicitation actually makes me less likely to donate money/buy stuff from you. There are many reasons, such as: 1. You pissed me off by disturbing me at home. 2. I don't carry cash, so I couldn't give you money even if I wanted to. 3. Your products suck. I don't want to buy a calendar, I already have one on my phone, one on my computer, and I get three of them sent to me for free every year. I don't want any wrapping paper, I'm still trying to use up the rolls I got three years ago. I don't want chocolates or beef jerky or girl scout cookies, they contain everything I'm allergic to. I certainly don't want to buy a magazine subscription, I get more than enough junk mail as it is and there's no need to be killing more trees for that crap. 4. I'm happy with my spiritual beliefs and I most certainly won't agree with any religion that encourages door to door solicitation. 5. I already do my own charity work, don't come to my house and try to guilt me into giving more. So yeah, you totally deserved it. Now, GTFO my property!

are you being sarcastic, i think you are, i hope you are. cause seriously in todays economy hunting helps a lot in the food budget and living in the country when you do know gun saftey there is really nothing better than a gun to protect your family. 911 could not get here fast enough if someone broke in to my house. My husband works nights i am a five foot tall woman that weighs like a buck five. its called having an equalizer at the ready if i need it to protect me and the kids.

Some people are VERY unhappy about being woken up. As a teenager I used to literally scream at being woken up for school.

Joke: 2 door 2 door salesmen were ordered 2 sell toothbrushes.1st one sold 5 that day, the other sold 600! Boss asked; "How'd ya sell so much?" 2nd salesman said, "I'd offer 'em a piece of candy during my sales pitch. 1/2 way into the pitch, the customer would say, 'This candy tastes like shit!' I'd reply, "It is...Wanna buy a toothbrush?" (Go & doo likewise, Gentlemen!)

Ydi for being a door to door salesman.. Stay off my doorstep. I don't care what you're doing..

You just got a look into what a Jehovah's Witness goes through on an almost daily basis.

its hard enough to try and sleep in the day when ur on nights as it is!!!
