"Under Pressure"

Today, a door to door salesman rang the bell. For real, are there such things as door to door salesmen any more? Apparently so...and selling some sort of nutritional supplement. Right, like if I'm going to get healthy, I'll wait for some Joe Schmoo to ring the bell.
I thought tthe idea of salesmen went out with the pet rock. No one enjoys bbeing pressured into buying anything. Instead, the most effective way to get people to buy something is to give them all the info they need and THEN let them decide...that's hard to do when, just by ringing the bell, it's obvious someone is wanting to sell something.
Again, no one makes a well thought out and intelligent choice if pressured to do so. Keep that in mind next time you're having the screws put to you to open your wallet.
