I didn’t get the feeling that the caller Mabel was hoping for, was a gentleman. As Mae West said, “Goodness had nothing to do with it.” 😉 😀

Mabel was just trying to be polite with her terms, just as she was being polite by not answering the door naked…

I sense a degree of bitterness here, backed up by certain indiscretions in your past. Care to share?

Actress (channeling Mae West, but without the external enhancements): *AHEM*
Plumber/termite man/handy type man person: What? Can’t you see i”m really busy here? Your handy man problem isn’t going to go away with distractions being placed on the menu!
Actress: Don’t you think I look really seductive and fetching though? This is my second best negligee after all!
Plumber dude: I guess. But lady, I gotta tell ya. Your efforts are wasted. My tool belt is reserved for others with similar tool belts. Lady type tool belts don’t ring my bell.
Actress: But I specifically requested a REAL MAN to come adjust my off kilter..
Plumber dude: And that’s exactly what you got too. A REAL MAN. I’m in touch with my feelings see, and they tell me that embracing my inner manly man is the way to go.
Actress: Well just don’t expect a tip!

Oh, this was tasty, with hints of diversity, diversion and drama. Which means that it should be immediately turned into a musical on Broadway. I’ll have my people see what they can do….

I’m not sure if you’re just being coy or if you really do find lace-enhanced night-night clothes to be the bee’s knees, so I’ll just calmly end this comment without making any judgment… 😉

Mabel, dear, termite treatment is important! Next time, order the prevention pack. It comes with special perks.

Sadly, Mabel DID order the prevention pack. She just had a misunderstanding about the concept of “complete coverage”…
