Phone Call With Handyman

Kelly: Sorry, I was on a call when you left.

Handyman: You were on a call when I got there and you were on the call when I left.

Kelly: Yes, wasn’t expecting that.

Handyman: It’s fine.

Kelly: Send the invoice? Or just let me know what I owe you. I can send payment now.

Handyman: I was only there for twenty minutes. It took longer to drive.

Kelly: Yeah, exactly. I’m paying you. Let me know what you charge.

Handyman: Your son could have done it on his own, I reckon with a little encouragement.

Kelly: No, trust me. He couldn’t.

Handyman: I reckon he could. And I can’t charge for a friendly deed.

Kelly: I held that air conditioning unit out the window with him, trying to install it, for over an hour last night. It took you twenty minutes to do it and I was on the phone the whole time.

Handyman: There’s no professional fee for helping someone out.

Kelly: Um… yes, there is.

Handyman: Buy me some Guinness.

Kelly: What kind?

Handyman: There’s only one kind.

Kelly: With the spinner in it.

Handyman: Yes. The Widget.

Kelly: Yes. The Widget.

Handyman: What a magical thing, that widget. But, it must be a can.

Kelly: Yes of course the large can with the widget.

Handyman: There’s only one size of can.

Kelly: Got it. Right.

Handyman: Do you drink Guinness?

Kelly: Yes. I know about the spinner widget.

Handyman: If you hate it you’ll never like it.

Kelly: I like it.

Handyman: Magical.
