The mission of Moxie Pest Control is to increase the standard of living and the quality of life for clients, employees, and the community through safe, dependable pest control service.

Really?

Do you think my quality of life has been increased when you show up on my doorstep with your company shirt and your clipboard and refuse to move when I tell you: “No thank you. We already have a quarterly service plan with Western Exterminators.” Also, in case you haven’t noticed, I am on the phone (as would be evidenced by the phone on the side of my face).

I try to close the door. No response from Moxie Man, no effort to move out of my doorway. Literally, no response, as in no words at all, just creepy staring. I start to close the door again. He isn’t moving, he’s just staring. I get the feeling he would stand there for hours, his nose 3 inches from a closed door… just staring. I finally shooed him away, but Holy Perserverence, Batman!

Hello Moxie Pest Control? Hi, I would like to report a pest problem. Yeah, your salesman.
