Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
Step1
This is a subject you have to be careful with. Old people tend to lose thier tempers very easily. If your trying to get in good with some old person because you want in their will OR this is just the buisness you've chosen to work in this is what you do.
You have to show old people that your patient. Walk with them anywhere, whether they use a cain, walker, wheelchair, electric scooter or whatever. Just walk and keep THEIR pace. So by the time you guys get back from that walk around the block you started 3 hours ago you'll be halfway to your goal. It's this easy.
Step2
Old people like to know that others are thinking about them. What better way to show that you are than to give them gifts and it doesn't have to be their birthdays or any special occassion. Old people get excited easily, give them just about anything and watch their eyes light up. Try a rubberband... Just kidding
Step3
I think the last thing you should do to get an old person to let you in the door is to ask them about their life. They'll go on an on about how their grade school was in the firestation and you'll be like what? Its okay if they lose you because eventually they'll pass out in mid conversation like they do... Then you got about twenty minutes to go through all their stuff. Joking. I love old people. Of course there are other ways to get old people to like you but if you at least do these things your guaranteed more smiles than frowns.
