Helping a friend

JT: [exacerbated] I was flipping six homes at a time in Omaha… I was up to my eyeballs.


Kent: And that’s when your buddy, Rob called?

JT: Yeah. He was here, five states away. I want to help, but what was I supposed to do, put all my renovations on hold and bring my entire crew over here?

Kent: His house got destroyed during hurricane Florence, right JT?

JT: That’s right, Kent.

Kent: But Rob needed you, so you came.

JT: So, I came. I helped Rob, then his neighbor, then his neighbour’s neighbour.

Kent: [surprised] Holy Cow.

JT: I can’t remember how many houses I repaired when I said to myself this has to stop. I can’t fix everything. I’m an F18 pilot, a specialist– I had to pick one thing.

Kent: Was it a hard choice?

JT: Nope. I picked the most important thing. The Roof.

Kent: [as a matter of fact] A hard-working roof protects the rest of the home.

JT: Kent, when I was repairing houses, my biggest concern was this roof better not leak. A roof that wouldn’t destroy all my hard work repairing the rest of the home.

Kent: [childlike] A roof with nooo quit.

JT: Stealing my lines now, are you?

Jingle: ***Maven Roof dot com***

Kent: [calling JT out] You can’t always have the coolest line, JT.

JT: Oh… it is sooo on.
