80CM X 60 CM ACRYLIC ON CANVAS
When I was in college, I got a job selling vacuum cleaners door to door.
Since I had classes by day, the only time I could be ringing doorbells and bothering people would be on late afternoons and early evenings -which was family time for most people .
Being naturally shy , it was sheer torture for me to disturb people at their homes - sometimes in the middle of meals . Most people were nice about it . Some even invited me to join them for dinner .
But once in a while I would land on crazies . I once had a jealous husband who was certain that I was hitting on his wife . They were in the 70’s . I was 21.
Another time , I wanted to demonstrate to a potential customer the enormous suction power of the vacuum . I proceeded to empty out an ashtray on the
carpet- notwithstanding the customer’s quizzed expression.
No one was more surprised than I was when it turned out he didn’t have electricity due to lack of payment.
One awkward situation was once when I rang a doorbell and the door sprung open to a loud chorus of SURPRISE. The intended star of the show of the intended surprise party was just getting out of the elevator watching all this unfold . I felt rotten .
I had been assured I’d be making “tons of money” selling vacs but no one was buying . I had plenty of stories but no sales . ..Frustration set in .
I remember joking to myself that I would have better luck trying to sell a vacuum to a family of leopards…
