When you lock yourself out, you might feel stupid, or at least embarrassed, but it’s not the end of the world. You can lock yourself out for many reasons, especially when you’re in a rush. It is always better to get prepared for a lockout incident, whether with your car, house, or business. But if in any case, you’ve been caught unprepared, an emergency locksmith can help.

HOUSE LOCKOUT EXPERIENCE

One day I arrive for a house lockout, sometime in the afternoon. An angry customer met me in his driveway, cursing himself nonstop. In short, his message was “I Feel Stupid Locking Myself Out.” I kind of got into shock, was embarrassed, and didn’t know what to say.

This gentleman kept cursing himself with a long chain of curses from how stupid he was to how dumb could he be for forgetting to grab the keys on the way out. Suddenly, I stopped him and told him, “Sir, please stop cursing, you’re embarrassing me.”

My customer stopped cursing, and asked me, “How can I embarrass you, I didn’t say anything about you.” I replied; “Well, if you are an ordinary person who locked himself out of his home, how should a locksmith feel when he locks himself out of his van? And I immediately grabbed the spare key of my van out from my pocket. Then I added, “I’m a locksmith who helps people like yourself, every day, yet when it’s a busy day, I also can forget to grab my keys before leaving my van.”

My customer kept silent for a moment and started laughing out loud. So loud, that I started to be concerned about his health. I asked him, Sir, is everything OK? When I arrived, you looked mad, cursing, and angry, and now, you’re laughing like you’ve never locked yourself out. My customer replied; “You are a genius. It all depends on the way you look at it.” And then he added, “If a locksmith can lock himself out, it can happen to anyone.”

His door was open within 3 minutes, and his smile was back on his face, hopefully permanently.
