A dude called

[Mikey P]

late yesterday
Roomie of a Scruz riding buddy that moved here a few years back.
Cleaned for them then.


Verbatim

Hey Mike, I need the carpet cleaned

Hey Jim how are you guys doing?

Good were both working, keeping busy

Cool , cool..
So when were you thinking?

Tomorrow?

Who shit on the carpet?

Damn dog...

Tomorrow around noon OK?

Yup!

See ya then.

 

[Jim Pemberton]

OK wait....

Did you assume that the dog defecated on the carpet, or is that something otherwise inferred that you didn't put in the conversation?

Are they picking up the steamer themselves?

 

[Mikey P]

assumed and nailed it.


Why else would two dudes call in February?

 

[Mikey P]

asking for next day service..

I gotta find a way to use this story

Will your decision of VLM vs HWE be based on the degree of solidity versus liquidity of the fecal gift?

Pretty sure needs tomorrow means it probably looser then just a steamer, and needs professional help.

I hate when they have diarrhea, and work on it themselves.

Usually means wetting and sinking the stain into the back of the carpet.

I recommend arm and hammer sprinkle to absorb, solidifies and makes scrap up easier.

This is fascinating

When I was about 10, I witnessed two neighbor ladies screaming at each other, and alternately picking something up with paper towel and throwing it at each other.

As I drew near, I could tell that there was a blame game going on regarding whose dog deposited feces that had now become a source of pitch and not catch, but there was a return volley after each landing in the other yard.

I watched in horror and fascination as the unwanted material became smaller and more scattered, but each managed to quickly recover it and throw it with some accuracy near each other, and no longer just in the other's yard.

I beat a hasty retreat and went to my father to share to story.

Without looking up from his paper, he simply said:

"Just feel badly that the most interesting thing in their lives right now is dog sh*t"

I have carried that lesson over to many things of dispute in people's lives.

That one was a little bit more interesting

That one was a little bit more interesting

It reminded me of exchanges here and similar forums

Oh, I got your point.
