CONFESSION #0289 — CLIENT FROM HELL
Thursday, December 25, 2025
I worked with a couple for five months who would only view houses on Tuesdays between 2 and 4 PM because that was when their "energy reader" said they were most receptive to detecting good vibes in a space. Fine, whatever, I've heard weirder. But then they started bringing the energy reader to showings. This woman would walk through each room waving her hands around and muttering, and I'd have to stand there nodding respectfully while the listing agent watched us like we'd escaped from somewhere. We made offers on three different houses, and each time the energy reader killed the deal at the last second because she sensed "previous conflict" or "stagnant financial energy in the garage." After the third failed offer, they told me they were going to take a break from house hunting because Mercury was in retrograde. That was eleven months ago. Last week they texted me asking if I was still available to show houses, but only on Tuesdays between 2 and 4. I told them I'd moved to commercial real estate. I haven't. I just can't do it again.

Judge Reginald Escrow III
⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF COSMIC COWARDICE AND FRAUDULENT CAREER RELOCATION
This Court has reviewed the evidence and finds the defendant GUILTY of abandoning clients to the celestial void rather than simply stating the obvious truth that one cannot purchase real estate through interpretive dance and garage vibes. The defendant stood in ELEVEN SHOWINGS nodding respectfully at a woman detecting "stagnant financial energy" as if that phrase means anything to a mortgage lender. Judge Escrow has presided over many cases but rarely has he witnessed such spectacular spinelessness disguised as professionalism. You didn't move to commercial real estate. You FLED to commercial real estate, a sector which, I must inform the Court, also has garages. The energy reader won. She broke you. And now you lurk in the shadows of strip mall listings, haunted forever by the memory of Mercury in retrograde. This Court sentences you to knowing that Tuesday at 2 PM will never feel normal again.
SCANDAL RATING: 7.4/10 Retrograde Retreat
