Dealing with an Apartment Super
George: Did you call the Super about fixing the leaky faucet?
Louise: I called him on Monday, but I haven’t Heard back yet.
George: Well, call him again. This window is stuck and it won’t close.
Louise: I’ll call him, but I think he’s avoiding our calls.
George: He’s the worst super we’ve ever had. He’s in charge of the Maintenance around this place, but instead, he Hides out in his apartment. Whenever there’s a problem, he tells us he’s too busy to get to it right away. Too busy doing what, I’d like to know.
Louise: Maybe he is Overworked. There are 25 Units in this building, so it’s Conceivable that he’s busy making repairs β somewhere.
George: That’s what he’s Counting on, people like you who Give him the benefit of the doubt. All the while he’s drinking coffee and reading the newspaper somewhere. Mark my words.
Louise: I’ll call him again. Maybe we’ll Catch him in his apartment.
George: Save your energies.
Louise: Where are you going and what are you doing with that baseball bat?
George: I’m going To track down that super and bring him back here. Come hell or high water, he’s making those repairs β today!
