I once worked at the front desk of an assisted living and this was a call I tell to people all the time. Let’s just say the conversation went something like this:

Me: Hello, SR Assisted Living. This is JK, how may I help you?
Caller: Yea, um, I just got kicked out of my parent’s house and they told me to call here, the assisted living, because I need a place to stay for the night.
Me: Oh no, I’m sorry, this is a place for the elderly who are unable to care for themselves. People here are usually 65 and older.
Caller: Yea, but they told me to call here. I just got kicked out of the house.
Me: I’m really sorry to hear that but an assisted living is similar to a nursing home. It’s not really for your type of situation.
Caller: Ooooohh, Ok. I didn’t know………

The only thing I regret is not Googling something up for her while I was on the phone.

is “forever!”
