Just had a conversation with a tenant.
I said "The primer is a bit stinky, why don't we wait until your guests are gone".
It sounded bad as soon as I said it.
Like I was being impatient and wanted them to leave..
What I should have said was "We could wait until your guests have left".
This would imply giving her the choice as well, which is what I meant.

I notice I say things the wrong way all the time.
Someone at the store says "Have a nice day".
Occasionally I respond "Same here" instead of "You do the same and thanks for your help" or something like that.
Doh.
