Felt like they sold their souls to the devil for a better internet service -- I hate to see what happens when their late on a payment or when they cancel their contract.

[@michaelharper7350]

sounds like the contract I had with TWC (aka SPectrum). When we moved to another state and ending our service, they said I paid in full and didn't owe anything. Lo' and behold they sent a collection notice for 10 cents. How do you send 10 cents through the mail? I called and they were adamant that I go to a TWC center near me. That would be, uhm, a 10 hour drive!! Before I knew it, my credit score was hit for a late payment, then a missed payment, then for non-payment - for a freaking DIME! Customer Service was like this salesman. Great short film to the whole team!!

I like the way the story took a 'normal' everyday person like a Sales Person and made them the actual horror. The narrative events weren't predictable at all (which i liked) and the actor who played the Salesman did a good job. His character and performance were the right mix of pushy and creepy 👍🏾

The salesman looked like someone who would be from the Book of Mormon the musical at first lmao Great film!

That's why I don't trust strangers knocking on our door, I just pretend that I didn't hear them or simply ignore them until they give up and go, not unless I am expecting someone to come that day, idk if it's weird but I always feel conscious to the point that I keep a weapon near our door just in case something or someone might have a bad intention. 😨

[@FarmhouseFelts]

This was a great short! We constantly get Verizon Fios in our neighborhood trying to get everyone to switch. They’re relentless. I’m pretty straightforward, and tell them no thanks and if they keep it up I just shut the door. I don’t care if it’s rude. My husband though is way too nice for his own good. One time a sales girl from Verizon came around when my husband was home and was trying to get him to buy the plan. He said he tried to say no in a nice way, but when she still wouldn’t leave he told her he wasn’t feeling well and that now wasn’t a good time. She left and he thought that was that. I come home an hour later and I’m in the kitchen when this sales girl comes back knocking on our door. I just ignored it thinking she’d go away. Nope! The girl had the nerve to go around and start looking in our windows. I saw her doing this and got pissed. I opened the door and told her to get the hell off my porch or I’ll call the police. She did leave after that. I asked my husband why he just didn’t tell her no initially, he said he did.. multiple time but she was super persistent and that was the third time she had been at our house just that day! Some of these solicitors are psycho. I even had one girl come to the door in the dead of winter when it was like 10 degrees out and she tried to guilt me into buying something because she was cold! Lol I swear you can’t make this stuff up.
