So the story below represents a weird encounter this afternoon.
The wife and I was sitting around playing with the baby and a knock came from the garage door, which is odd being that I wasn't expecting anyone to come over.(I usually don't keep the garage open due to inventory) Anyway, I open the door and a cute girl is there around 30 years old and she asks me if I wanted to have a rug cleaned. I politely told her "no". She proceeded to tell me that she had a quota to fill and she had to get 3 more people to let her clean their rug. (This is were it gets fishy) I told her "no" again. I then noticed there were three guys in the suburban with her and no equipment. She then asked me if she could polish my tile flooring and I told her "no". She went back to her quota, but now changed it to 2 people needed to let her do her test. (At this time I am thinking she is trying to get me to buy something, or she and her buddies wants to come in my house really bad)
I told her that I was not interested in any "free" service. She then asked me for her flyer back, so she could give it to the next homeowner. The thing is she got into the truck and they left the block and didn't move on to the next home.
Recap of Fishiness
1. Trying to come in my house multiple times with different excuses
2. Not having any cleaning supplies and asking to clean my rug in a sundress. (Usually when women want to clean my house in a sundress they want a couple hundred dollars an hour)
3. Having multiple guys in the truck, that weren't very professional looking. (Trying not to stereotype)
4. Asking for her flyer back and not letting me hold onto it for future reference (Maybe they aren't up on marketing and don't know how business cards and flyers work)
So I guess I am going to sleep with the shotgun. Luckily I just picked up a nice 30+ round mag for the 9mm from Bayoushooter.
The question I have is, am I paranoid? I could use some of that cop insight on this one. (Or as Speedracer say's some of yall's Spideysenses from the booty buddy club)
