Who Does #2 Work For?
Clients #4 and #5, as I like to call them, are coming to view the apartment at 5:30 pm and 6:00 pm this evening. Others call them Matt and Sean. I like to keep the potential lessees as impersonal as possible. That way I don’t get too attached.
A week ago, I had secretly prophesized that I would only need three clients to view the apartment before it rented. I shared this secret with less than ten people. The prophecy did not come true, and I think this is because I wasn't able to keep it a secret. The new prophecy is that it will take five people to see the apartment before it rents. And the unchosen ones...
Clients #1: Couple soon to be graduating from University of Chicago. They wanted to live together, and I was superficially concerned that they were rushing into it. Unlike the prophecy, I keep this a secret. They decided on another apartment in the neighborhood and I thought they were dorks.
Client #2: Nice young woman soon to be graduating from Northwestern with a history major. Her big problem was that she would not let me haze her. I told her that she could perform a skit, and that if I didn’t like it she would have to give me a lap dance. The skit that she chose was walking around the apartment pretending to be interested and leaving saying that she would be in touch with me. Turns out she might just want an apartment lease that starts in September.
Alberto: Alberto gets a name because I like to say his name. Alberto. Alberto, a short talkative man-child, arrived at noon on Sunday, carrying fresh the scent of beer and cigarettes. Alberto loved the apartment, especially the water pressure. Within minutes of meeting him, Alberto mentioned a traumatic experience he once had at a bowling alley. He was also proud being awake since 9 am. Alberto talked about renting the apartment after clearing it with his girlfriend. As of 2 days ago, Alberto still has “two things” he needs to check on before he can accept the apartment.
I have attacked with a fresh ad. You might notice that Nemo’s testimonial from the previous entry's comments section was not added. This is because it is unclear from his testimonial whether or not pumpkin guts are engrained into the hardwood.
