"Hi Sean, how's going? blah blah blah..." my boss replied.
I did not want to bother my boss when I applied for an apartment last year, so I listed company representive number instead of his phone number on the application form. It ended up a long delay. The property agent called me and insisted on talking to my boss.
No time to waste this year. I had to secure a new apartment asap. I asked my boss to be my referee, filled out the lengthy application form, attached tons of documents, and finally clicked the button to send email.
I had not taken a break for a couple of hours since I came back from an open house inspection during lunch time. I had to take a leak. When I came back to my desk, I noticed that I had a missed call and a voice mail from a unknown number.
"Hello, this is Sean. I got a missed call for you," I called back in case that something wrong with my application.
"Congratulations, your application has been approved..." said the property agent.
Well, I was worried too much. The impact of coronavirus on rental market is so bad that my application just got approved instantly.
