I think that the majority of people will agree that repair is a necessity, hated routine, activity you can not avoid, that you dislike but nevertheless you can not do without it once in several years.
Nearly a month ago I decided to make a small repair in my house. I asked my friend to help me as she is a designer. We agreed that she would pick me up at 4 p.m. near my house. I wore the most comfortable shoes I had as I thought that we would visit dozens of shops and at agreed time I was standing in the street waiting for my friend. Finally she drove up, stopped the engine and got out of the car. It looked like we didn’t go anywhere.
- Oh, yeah! You are right! Everything we need is just your laptop - she said.
I was puzzled. When we came into the house she explained me that to her mind there was no necessity to spend a lot of time visiting a great number of shops because we had an access to “the greatest invention of the XXth century - the Internet”.
Later I understood that she was right because we find without any difficulties where to shop for rugs (there was a nice shop that offered ivory rugs buy online), we found some sites where one could buy kitchen racks and we managed to find a sofas shop online that offered a great variety of choice. It took us only an hour to choose all the things I needed! I was impressed and even a bit shocked!
The rest of the evening we were pleasantly chatting, surfing on the Internet, drinking coffee and looking through my summer photos. It was a nice evening.
When my friend left I was thinking for some time what a nice thing the Internet was. And starting from that evening I decided to save my precious time and money and buy all necessary things on the Internet!
