I needed to rent a small apartment for three months, while my home was being remodeled.
I didn’t want to find a locale where I had to sign a lease. I knew I would not be in the apartment for more than a few months. I found an appealing little chalet that was close to where I lived, and it was said to be modern, and 100% fully furnished. I could not wait to get my clothing together, and put my belongings into storage. I was blissful knowing I had found the perfect site, and was paying less in rent than I had expected to pay. I walked into the small chalet, even though I could not find the temperature control. I needed to turn the temperatures down and cool it off. I called the rental office, but they insisted they told me there wasn’t air conditioning… All I learned was that it was a new chalet, and fully furnished. If it was actually modern, it was safe to guess there was air conditioning in the chalet. She started to laugh at me, and asked me if I knew what ‘assume’ meant, even though I wasn’t amused with her antics. I wanted air conditioning, and since it wasn’t in the home now, I wanted it installed by evening, or I was moving out more quickly than I moved in. She was huffing at me, even though I was serious. I was not going to stay in the chalet separate from air conditioning. She said there was no possible way he could have air conditioning in my home in less than a couple of hours. I knew he was going to say that, and I was already packing all my clothes. I was worrying about what else was not modernized, if they didn’t have air conditioning.
