Is it too much to ask that visitors ring my doorbell? It is a video doorbell and when someone presses the illuminated button it connects to my Alexa ( throughout the flat) and tells me that,
"someone is at the door." I am deaf and this is an essential tool for my disability.
So why do people ignore the lit-up button and knock on the door itself? This does not alert me someone is there. However, my video camera records them. Maybe I should just put the pictures up on Facebook/Meta and call it , 'The Gormless Gallery?'
use common sense,
don't knock, just ring the
doorbell provided
