Yeah, they'll write your name down in a book. They act like it is just a simple question. See, I answer the door, am nice and take the book. They asked my name and I gave it. So. The next time they come they ask for me by name like they know me, are my friend. That pissed me off and I told them I was not interested.
Another time, after many weeks of not answering the door, my nephew answered the door with underwear on his head and talked to her.
Recently, some ladies who have been going next door {and I don't know if the family is JW, they celebrate the holidays, I believe} and visit with her. They saw my garage open as I was working out. I told them, 'Sure, leave the book on the car' and I continued. The following week she came back. She asked if she could come in to the garage I told her no as my dog would get her and secondly, that I am actually not interested in discussing my religion.
Normally, they ask if someone speaks Spanish, no, and they leave. Also, when they start talking, I say I am Catholic and start closing the door. Door to door salespeople? Usually for home remodeling, etc. I tell them I am renting and the owner isn't interested in doing any improvements.
My mother, now, she gives the ladies heck. Or used to. One time I was there she answered the door and totally chewed out these two ladies walking around with their kids. She told them that her God wouldn't have her dragging her kids all over the street putting them in danger. Go home and take care of your kids, she said.
But, it isn't right for anyone to come to your door to discuss your personal religion.
