Like dealing with the IRS, only the gate guard doesn't shake 
you down.

Most bad guys apparently only come out at night here, because 
the gates are usually open during the day, with no guard on 
duty. Or there is a nearly indecipherable electronic directory 
and keypad system at the gate (that often isn't working), and 
you have to call the house anyway.

There's also the presumption that, because of their money and 
position, you've doubled your rates for that particular 
service call, and they'll try to get a discount for tuning 
their 1907 Harwood. This, after sending you around back to the 
"service entrance".

Fortunately, most aren't like that.
