122【Etsuko】A Rather Awkward Incident
from English Learners Club(ELC) · host ELC
So, our bathroom faucet had been dripping for a few days, no matter how tightly I turned it off. My husband called a repair service, but since he had to go into the office, I was left to hold down the fort and handle the appointment. The moment the repairman walked in, he completely ignored the leak and went straight into “full-on salesman” mode. He was like, “Hey, if you buy this brand-new, fancy shower set right now, I can give you a massive discount!” I instantly got bad vibes from him and thought, “Okay, this guy is sketchy as hell.” I couldn't believe my husband had hired someone like this! The energy in the room became incredibly awkward. To protect myself—and our wallet—I had to play hardball…I called my husband right in front of the guy, demanding a formal quote, which I knew the guy couldn't produce. Then, as he was practically running out the door, I blocked his way and demanded his business card. The best part? A week later, my husband called a different company, and they fixed it perfectly. He was so happy and thrilled with their service. But honestly?Seeing him look so satisfied after leaving me with that nightmare made me absolutely furious!
