My husband and I had recently invested in a rental property. When we bought the house, it was in good condition, but things changed. Some of the local boys thought the house was abandoned and started throwing rocks at the windows. Even though what they did, wasn’t right, I was once a kid who had brothers with a lot of extra energy. The only thing we could do was get someone to give us an estimate for window replacements and door replacements throughout the building. I called one company, and they offered to go to the building. They said they would meet my husband there the following Saturday at 8 AM. My husband was working, so I went in his stead. When the man from the window replacement company showed up, he looked right past me and asked where my husband was. I told him he could talk to me about window replacements, but he didn’t act like he wanted to talk to me. I explained my husband was working, and he asked if there would be a better time for him. I laughed. After explaining to him that my husband and I were a partnership, and if he couldn’t talk to me, I would look elsewhere. He suddenly became very chatty. Although his pricing for window and door replacements was reasonable, we went to another company. My husband didn’t like it when people acted like I was just a stupid woman when I took care of our business decisions. The other window and door replacement company was cheaper, and they were easier to work with.
