Because I have a "NO Soliciting" sign on my door. Got so tired of carpet cleaners, Security sellers, carpet cleaner salesman and the like knocking on the door. Sometimes as many as 9-10 times a week, been real bad when you get 3-4 in one day so up went the sign. And damn if we have Americans who can't read and understand english and then they get upset when they get treated rudely.
It depends on the person, whether my lawn needs it at the time, and how they approach me. If it's a kid, or someone needy, I would try to help them out.
My lawn stays mowed, maggot likes to mow it. But I used to let the local kids mow it once in a while when they would ask if I'd like them to do it for me.
We must have some lazy azz kids around here because I have lived in this house since 02 and not once has a kid knocked on the door asking to mow the lawn.
They are just trying to make a little money its not because they are personnaly trying to offend you. If you get all pissy because someone is trying to make some money in this economy then you need to check yourself.
a homeless guy came up and asked if he could. I know him ive actually went and sat down with him at his bench and talked to him. His name is Willy or at least thats the name he gave me. I asked how much and he told me he would do the front and back for 15. I told him do it right and ill give you 25. By the end of the day i gave him 25 an old pair of shoes and a beer.
haha:D well it would be nice to watch a hot guy walk back and forth across your lawn cause the chances of him taking his shirt off on a hot day are pretty high
:D
Take care,
I'd pass anyhow, I have someone who cuts it.
:D
