When A Valpak Coupon Isn't Enough
-
There are much more effective, and less illegal, marketing techniques for your tree trimming service than to do what this tree trimmer in Florida reportedly did and threaten a couple at gunpoint when they refused his offer. They were coming out of their house, he walked up and asked for their business, they said no and asked him to leave the property, and then, the error: They told him to tell his boss to keep his people off their property and added that "The next guy that comes out here is liable to get shot," whereupon he allegedly pulled a gun and told them "I'm a fast shot" and "I never miss." Despite that, they STILL didn't hire him. Best part: When the cops called him and asked him for his name, he pleaded the Fifth Amendment, as if he was testifying in court. The caller ID was enough identification, though. Anyway, the homeowner probably shouldn't have talked tough about shooting and the tree trimmer shouldn't have pulled the gun, but it's Florida, so....
