Somebody woke up on the bad side of the
bed this morning. This morning my nanny was walking home with my
kids and the pram had a puncture. So, lets get it fixed.
While at the bike shop, I asked if it
could be repaired and they Bike Shop Man, took the wheel of and began
to tell us that we should no have wheeled it when it was punctured.
Mind you, Two toddlers, mums out there,
I know you here me.
He came over sanding the side of the
wheel, starting to give me a lecture about the wheel and how
important a rim is!
Fully understanding that it is not good
to have a punctured tire and still use it, I told him that our nanny
did not do it on purpose.
He turned in frustration.
I must admit, when leaving the shop I
found it so amusing that someone was so uptight about repairing a
tire I was in hysterical laughter, my nanny was laughing too.
Meanwhile getting ice-cream for the
kids and Angry Bike Shop Man being named, 'Mr Grumpy', we head back
in and spoke to his apprentice that gave us an explanation about the
tire, AGAIN!
I assured him, I have learnt my tire
lesson and it will not happen again.
Mr Grumpy quite humbly turned to
myself, nanny and children and said “I don't want to give you a
complex about the Pram.” Too Funny, (like anyone who gets a
complex about a pram has serious issues), He then apologised and
said, “I don't want to be known as 'Angry bike shop Man'”,
I said it was OK, we did not think of
him as 'Angry Bike Shop Man', but when we left, Mr Grumpy was Mr
Apologise.
The moral to the story,
If your life is going to give you
stress changing pram tires, decide on another career.
It is not worth worrying your life away
about pram tires when the owner is not that upset in the first place.
Poor Angry Bike Shop Man
It is just not worth getting this upset over a tyre!
