Stop in for a cup of coffee

So just got home. We had one of our renters call in with a bad microwave. The crew Jodi uses for rental property maint dropped the ball so guess who got to pick it up? Yep. Bunch of Hispanics in the house I am guessing two separate families with two generations on one side and three on the other. They were chattering away while we put in new over stove microwave, had no idea I am basically fluent in Spanish! When we left I thanked the old man as the Patron and we got to chattering about the roof. He used to be a roofer. Our renter explained they were “visiting” from New York when we got there this evening. When we left and I addressed the Patron you could have heard a pin drop! It was classic, and a lot of fun! I found a bunch of tequila bottles above microwave in the vent cubby. He explained they were for decoration, now that is some creativity right there! Hah!
When I had the street crimes unit, we do a drug raid put all the Hispanics out on the living room couch. I had a dumb looking white guy who grew living in Central America a few teenage years with his missionary parents. As they sat there the gang would start chattering about who hid drugs where. He just stood there with a smile on his face. I'd send someone in to replace him and he'd come out and tell us where everything was hidden. It took them a few months to catch on.
