So no matter how you rake it, there’s always going to be a few snakes in the straw!
My farm-girl lingo aside and translated into city slicker terms, that just means there are always going to be a few that spoil it for the others and the insurance world seems to win gold with this one.
It’s those one or two pushy little cockroaches, that will not stop coming at you no matter how many times you insult or assault them!…I’m kidding about that last part.
And trust me, I totally understand that you achieve great pleasure just thinking about playing nice for a few minutes, so you can draw them in, target them high with a fast dollyo chai gi (round house kick), following through with a snap dwi cha gi (back kick) and finishing with a solid hap cha gi (front snap kick)!
…sorry…that’s my inside-the-head voice getting carried away.
My master would not be impressed with me because for four years, my martial arts instructor patiently pounded into my thick skull, to always avoid fighting, by diffusing the situation (the exact opposite of how we handled things on the farm!).
He’s right but it is fun to think about sometimes!
Getting back on track. After failing with the nice stuff, the quickest route to getting rid of the pesky insurance agent is to bully right back. They really don’t like it when the tables are turned.
Read up on all you can about insurance and let them know you are fully aware of what you need and that you will not be using them for your purchase.
Although you need to make certain you are targeting the right person. Some insurance agents really are trying to convince you to purchase home, life, auto or health protection for the right reasons, because you need to make sure your family and financial responsibilities are taken care of, if you died.
I get that and it makes total sense. Unfortunately, there are those slicksters that are just out to make their commission and aren’t taking ‘NO! NOW GET OFF MY PROPERTY!’ for an answer.
Stand up to them and if that doesn’t work, you could always just tell on them! The Department of Insurance has a few ways to get things resolved rather quickly, with their own version of the rear naked choke hold!
