Why do people have to be such grumps about this kind of thing?Years ago, I was trying to rent an apartment. After the visit, the owner, an old lady, invited me to some tea in her own home nearby.
Not sure how the conversation came to that, I think it started with me asking about a parking spot, but she told me that washing the car is for poor people.
"For someone that drives a nice new car like yours it doesn't matter too much if it's clean. It's the guy with an ugly old car that spends a lot of time cleaning it, hoping that it will look better".
I didn't rent the apartment, but I learned a valuable lesson: don't worry about a little dust here and there.
