I don't even bother with a sign. If I'm not expecting someone, I don't answer the door. I sit there like nobody is knocking.

I don't usually answer the door but will answer the doorbell since my wife is on a first name basis with all of the delivery folks.

Bawaaahahaha... back when my daughter lived at home, forever ago, the UPS guy new her by her first name. I can relate.

Several years ago I made the same dumb move in a different way. Standing in a long line at the grocery store, the lady checking out in front of me was arguing with the checker over an expired coupon. It was for .75 cents or so. After what seemed like an eternity, I said to the checker, "Jesus Christ, I will give you the .75 if she will just leave.". Oh boy! The lady turned her anger at me. LOL... I through up my hands and just said, "sorry. I was just trying to help.". Admittedly it probably sound more like I was being a smart mouth the way I said it. I won't make that mistake again.
