Short YouTube monologue by Chris Koerner (uploaded Aug 30, 2024) in which he says he did door-to-door sales for two years and offers five humorous/hyperbolic "hacks" to get salespeople off your doorstep: (1) say you are just renting, (2) claim a relative owns a pest-control company, (3) say you are moving tomorrow, (4) claim you already have solar and then lock the door when they check, and (5) threaten violence ("say one more word and I'll murder you"). The piece is presented as tongue-in-cheek life-hack advice with dark comedic tone.

Two years.

I did door to door sales for two years. And here's a dirty little secret. We hate doing it just as much as you hate seeing us. So here are my five hacks for getting us off your doorstep. Number one, I'm just renting. I don't own this place. I can't make these decisions. Number two, oh, my brother owns a pest control company. Number three, oh, I'm moving tomorrow. So sorry. Number four, I already have solar. And then when they go look on your roof, you just lock the door. And number five, say one more word and I'll murder you. Follow me for more life hacks like this.
