Word of warning. I recommend you’re not drinking anything while watching this video or your computer screen will be wearing it!
One of these things you find online and it makes you laugh.
Forget the guy coming to the door. This is what I want to do to the fucking
assholes in our Amway upline!
Ah sweet revenge! This will keep you laughing and hitting the replay button over and over!
That's funny LOL, reminds me I used to always spend a few bucks and chat friendly with the old Fuller Brush salesman/woman when they came to my door. I mean, they actually sold some good useful stuff like toothbrushes and they weren't trying to recruit me into a sinister cult.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - what's even more funny is that years ago I bought a couple of brushes when we were in Amway. A hand brush or nail brush. On the handle it said Fuller Brush. So Amway must have bought out their inventory and then sold it at jacked up prices. But yes the Fuller brushes were about the only good thing I bought from Amway and they lasted a long time!
DeleteI remember the Fuller Brush Man. He usually stopped by maybe twice a year with his big sample case of various brushes. There was always something useful that a customer would buy. It's clear that the guy had to do a huge volume of business to make any serious money.
ReplyDeleteBut the time of the door-to-door salesman is really gone. Big stores and catalogues, and above all the internet, have made that line of work obsolete.
Also, the door-to-door salesman depended on things that have pretty much vanished -- stable neighborhoods, locality-based friendships and loyalty, word-of-mouth advertising, everybody speaking English, crime-free cities, and an unchanging routine of domestic life.
I even recall people selling encyclopedias door-to-door. Can you imagine anybody trying that now? There even was a guy who drove around in a small truck, and he would sharpen your scissors and knives for you!
Anonymous - years ago people did knock on doors with items for sale or to offer their services like sharpening kitchen items or mowing your lawn. Even years ago we'd knock on strangers doors if our car broke down to ask to use the phone. These days people are more suspicious of door knockers. Whether or not the door knocker has something for sale, in this day and age we can find just about everything we want online or at a big store. I don't remember any encyclopedia salesmen knocking on the door but assuming one of the must have because we did have a set!
