M: Hey, Susan, how's it going?

W: Terrible. I'm really unhappy at Pat, the house owner. When I came home yesterday, the front door was wide open; the cat was hiding in the closet, and there was Pat. He came to change the pipe, but he didn't even tell me that he was coming. He does this all the time. Last month, one day I was throwing a dinner party for eight people. When I went out for a minute to buy some wine, Pat came to repair the broken light in my bedroom. I nearly had a heart attack when I walked in and found him there.

M: At least he fixed the light.

W: But it's terrible not knowing when Pat is going to show up.
