Doors Left Unlocked

Hello List!

We've probably discussed this before, but my curiosity is getting the
better of me again.

How do you handle the customer who tells you they'll be happy to leave the
door unlocked so that you may come in, do the work, leave the bill, and
leave the house?  I realize that this is a common practice, so I was
wondering if any of you have had, shall we say, "unexpected repercussions"
from such an arrangement?

I for one will never enter a house unaccompanied.  I don't care if the door
was left wide open.  Having a teenager, neighbor or house sitter/cleaner
waiting to let me in is "legitimate."  Am I being overly cautious?

Just curious again ...
