It's not sales, just a starving student story. Remember, you asked.susislicker wrote:Some of the stories of door to door sales are great!
I got a summer job giving door-to-door surveys for the state. Every day we were given a question to ask and a neighborhood to target. One day my question was: What kind of birth control do you use?
I went to the first house and knocked on the door. When the lady answered, I showed her my ID, explained what I was doing, and asked my question. She said she used the pill. I marked that answer on my response form, said thank you and went to the next house.
After going through the process at the next house the lady replied that she used spermicidal foam. I marked that answer on my response form, said thank you and went to the next house.
After going through the process at the third house the lady replied, “I use the Bug Eyed Bucket Method.”
Not seeing this particular method on the response form and thinking she may have been kidding, I said, “Lady, I’ve never heard of that particular method and it’s not on my response form. Can you give me a description?”
“Sure,” she replied, “As you can see I stand about six feet tall but my husband is only five foot one. When we make love, we do it standing up and he stands on a bucket. When he gets bug eyed, I kick the bucket out from under him.”
