He could be a complete eejit and not know it either .:D
I'd be willing to bet that the majority of clients do something like this the first time - I know I did. It was only after a wee bit of reading on the site that I realised how to behave.
I also think that most people who spot an "obvious punter" are those who have been there themselves.
Before finding this site I would not have thought it at all notable if someone was outside an apartment block asking for codes or directions.
It might be worth someone adding a short section on Discretion to the Tips for Newbies sticky.
That is all very well, but if there are any suspicions whatsoever with the local residents, that one person with their phone to their ear saying the number of the apartment loud enough for other to hear, could just be the confirmation that they need to start watching with a vengeance or report the apartment to the caretaker.
If it happened once in a blue moon it would not be a problem, but once or twice a Week and it can look odd, any more and people are starting to wonder what is going on.
