The Worst Salesman Ever

About two o'clock this afternoon there was a knock at my door. I opened to find the TruGreen Lawn dude (TGLD) standing at my door.

TGLD: Good afternoon my name is (yeah I can't remember). I was in your neighborhood servicing some of your other neighbors and wanted to know whether you would like to be put on our route.

Me: I am not interested but thank you.

TGLD: May I ask why you aren't interested?

Me: Well, my husband works on our lawn and I think he does a pretty good job by himself.

TGLD: (Turns and surveys our lawn). Why yes, your lawn looks in pretty good shape.

Awkward pause

Me: OK, well in that case thanks for stopping by.

Door shuts.
