Males (in particular those in the role of "husband") really adore sending ladies to shop on behalf of them. Essentially much the same way certain employers have their PA's run their tasks. That is how I wound up walking from shop to shop, familiarizing myself with all the technical specifics of fax printer copier units.
I eventually realized that this was complete unfamiliar territory.
Don't misunderstand me: I will use any possible reason to raid the shops, but though I started out on this journey very enthusiastic simply for the fact that I will be given the opportunity to spend someone else's cash, with permission off course, it was also difficult at the same time.
I don't know if other females feel the same, but when it comes to doing shopping on behalf of a man in this specific division, I am scared. I by no means feel confident enough about this, although I assume we should feel privileged that they pick us do to the shoppingI keep investigating features such as: Will this fax printer copier be child-friendly? How long will a white fax printer copier stay clean? But for some reason that is not the things guys look at.
The exciting quest soon turned out to be nerve wrecking as I found (yet again) that husband and I have different opinions and conditions for this new edition to the household. Every fax printer copier machine I figured was wonderful was not even half an option for husband. I ended up capturing pictures of each "candidate" and sending it to him, together with all the fancy "specs" of each one. More than half of the details I sent to him I still don't fully grasp. It just seems like babble, but evoked a lot of "awesomeness" from my partner.
The following barrier in this journey was the price range. Those which had all the trendy technological details and appeared to be the best ever, also ended up being sold at a price way out of our little spending budget. We evidently did not stay on top of the price increases in the business. I walked up and down between 3 shops, evaluating not only those not comprehensible "specs" but also the prices. Again I sent all this info through to my Minister of Finance and each and every time I waited in suspense for the verdict. This one was missing this function and that one was R400 too costly. This was difficult.
After almost 4 agonizing hours of this journey and again in between outlets, I took a deviation to a coffee shop. With feet burning and legs cramping I ordered myself a nice Capuccino (with cream).
At that specific moment I did not worry about any machine. I "switched off". Completely. I already made my own decision.
After I enjoyed that (extremely nice, extremely fattening) cappuccino I phoned husband and told him what I have decided. Oddly he agreed with me, 100%. I got up, walked back to the very first shop I visited and I bought the very first fax copier printer "we" considered. I can't remember if it had everything my partner wanted and I also did not care that it was white, I just bought it. Mission accomplished. I was grateful to walk back to my motor vehicle, drive home and go and lie on the sofa.
When my better half got home he took out his new toy and I heard him as he struggled and reported while he set it up and set up all the gadgets.
