Legacy…..what is a legacy? If we go with a google search: “a gift by will especially of money or other personal property...” Could be anything really….A lesson to which your descendants will do something they do and can pinpoint the origins to you….anything. Now, this question takes a bigger place in your mind as you get closer to kick the bucket….”What am I leaving behind for them to have an easier life than the one I had?” Well. just yesterday I found out my answer.
Anybody that knows Mr. Carlos Guzman knows that when he makes big purchases, he is the one who always buys the “Extended warranty”. Yes, I will dish out the extra cash (or advise someone to purchase) on the extended warranty; just in case. Friends, family, and foes often laugh at me and my ignorance on purchasing such an item. Well, I have been vindicated several times and yesterday was another one of those times.
The tale of the defective dryer!
My oldest was drying clothes yesterday when I suddenly started to smell a plastic rubber smell. Then suddenly, smoke filled the house! FUCK, FIRE! Relax, no, there was no fire. It was smoke coming from the dryer. My night guy was here so he took a sec to inspect the machine and said it was toasted….better get a new one! Fuck, just when I thought that my next free check was going towards the purchase of a drone….. Going down through memory lane I remembered that I had bought a warranty on that sucker so I call the store who informed me that “YES, It’s under warranty!” So they gave me the necessary info and phone number to call for a service call on the dryer!!....
There it is, this is my legacy: Always buy extended warranty; it works!
True story folks, I just got about another year’s worth of drying clothes because ignorant me bought a stupid warranty...
