Friends had built a new house with pink carpeting - builder was sending workers over to fix something after they moved in. Wife asked if he could have his guys remove their shoes so as to not track dirt - he agreed, but pointed out that he couldn’t guarantee that their socks would be any cleaner than their boots were.

(Did I mention that this was in Florida???)

After posting earlier , thought of another funny one.
New house, dead of winter, raining.
I had delivery to said house, front entrance unusable, was told to go around back. Back yard sloped off to ravine, drove truck into back, almost slid into ravine.
Being arrogant, delivery cannot get worse, it did.
I went to pull box off truck, lost footing, regained footing got box off truck. standing box upright, located entrance to abode.
Went to put handcart under box, managed that, went to pull handcart back to move box to entry.
Footing went, handcart and box ended on top of me, crawled out from under, tried to right both, lost footing again.
Fell in puddle, covered in mud. Called office for assistance, received assistance in form of salesman, wearing Italian loafers.
Salesman useless, salesman laughing at situation, got box upright. Dragged to entrance of house, no stoop.
Lay drop cloths down to protect white carpet.
Lift said furniture into room over 3 ft stoop.
setup, get out with some dignity.
Did I forget to mention family was watching me slipping and sliding around back yard, whole time.
I kaugh now,but was embarrassed at time.
Learned humility, also impossible situations happen,better to reschedule.
