A pest-control technician shows a homeowner wasp nests and a grub problem in the backyard, then pitches an 18-month contract. The homeowner balks at the length and mentions possibly moving to Europe. The technician says the contract can transfer to a future buyer if the house sells within six months.

I don't want to lock into a contract for 18 months. 18 months is a long time. A year is a long time. Whether you move to Europe or not, you need pest control now. Can you show me the backyard so I can see what we're looking at? Wasp nest. That's right, that's it. There's another one right here. Oh, there we got a wasp right there. Look. Yeah, do you think he knows I'm about to blast him? Yeah, so, so yeah, so there's— okay, this is a new shed that I'm going to— I'm going to— hey, hey, I didn't even know about this. We're going to treat it though. We will cover grubs for you as well. Give me a second. That's included? Yeah, I'm doing grubs for you. Wow. Listen, you need this bad. Like, I'm, I'm looking at the grubs here, I'm looking at the wasp mess, I'm like, we can't afford not to do it at this point. Yeah, let's say that we sell in 6 months. Oh, do you want to hear something cool? Would you guys transfer to the next owner? Yeah, it makes sense. It's a good discount. The, the only concern is that locking it in. Do you do Apple Pay? We don't do Apple Pay. I just put a card on file today.
