He's been on for about 8 minutes. I live in a small place, I have no choice but to hear all the details of the radiant heating he is installing.
I know it won't cost me more money because he is chatting away, but this is my time, too. I even took off from work for this appointment!
Pissed? Not at him. At me. Because I am in my own home feeling awkward. Not pleasant at all... |

He finally hung up. He apologized for turning my living room into an office. Las the Brave declared Hmm? Oh, that's no problem.  |

So... go put some head phones on & listen to music or read a book (which you can do with headphones on and no music if you like) try out a new recipe, pay some bills online, whatever. |

My piano is tuned! He's going with the concrete floor. I sat in my chair and knit the whole time. |

Thanks for asking irl. He put the piano tuning on hold while he took the call. I kept knitting. My cat kept sniffing him.
I will tell you: when I sat down to practice this afternoon I got goose bumps - my piano has never sounded so rich. I called the tuna (on his cell) to thank him. |

Las, make sure you give out his cell phone number, too. You know he will take the calls. |

I will speak on behalf of Las.
Big Poppa, sometimes tuning a piano just means tuning a piano.
It would be very, very rude indeed if the decorator were to take a cell phone call. |
