Imagine...........
9:30 Tuesday morning. Because you have 4 children, 3 of which you homeschool, you are not dressed and you won't be until after lunch.
You hear a knock at the door, followed by the ferocious barking that only a 20 lb. schnauzer can emit. You go to the door, followed immediately by 4 children in various stages of dress, where you find a man in a South East Alabama Gas District uniform who informs you that he has to change your meter and must come inside to do so. Now, there has been no letter from the gas company warning of the meter changes, no phone call to set up an appointment time, just a strange man, at the door, wanting to come in.
What would you do????
I said "Thanks but no thanks" to that gas guy. Paranoid...maybe. But it's not like I could scoop up all 4 kids and the yapping schnauzer and run for the closest neighbor. I probably hurt the poor guy's feelings but they really should call first.
