Stupidity Isn't Contagious
I don't know why I am so terrified that Stupidity is going to be Contagious. It isn't. It frequently is irritating. It can be dangerous. It may result in hurting a fairly broad spectrum of bystanders. But, it is NOT contagious.
I only had one listing when I changed offices. The Broker frequently keeps the listings when agents move. I really didn't mind loosing this listing. On many levels it is a brown paper bag full of problems and troubles.
It is one thing to say that the old company was going to keep the listing. Getting them to finish the paperwork on it has been an on-going process. I have been trying to get my keybox off the place for 3 weeks. On Monday I was promised that the new listing agent would take care of it. She sent me an e-mail saying that she would let me know when she had placed a new keybox on the place and I could tell her what she needed to do to move the key. I wrote her back. I gave her step by step instructions. First open my keybox. Second, take the key out of my keybox. Third, put the key in the new keybox.
I just got off the phone with the agent. She couldn't find the keybox. No, I didn't ask if she had tried using both hands and a flashlight.
The condo is accessed from a common 2nd floor landing that is shared by two units. The agent asked me which of the door was to the unit. I held my breath and counted to two before answering. I told her that it was going to be the door that the key unlocked, pretty much every time.
