I am really good at repairing vacuum cleaners. I fixed the belt on one at home when I sucked up a shoelace and it tangled the wheelie thing and it smelled like burning. I went to the hardware store all by myself, and told the guy what my idiot little sister did while she was cleaning (ha! i am also good at lying!) and he showed me where the belts were and i got the right one, bought it, unscrewed the Eureka ALL BY MYSELF and INSTALLED the belt, then get this: I PUT IT ALL BACK TOGETHER WITH NO SCREWS LEFT OVER.
Then, maybe 2 months ago, my own personal vacuum stopped sucking things up, even like, pencil sharpener shavings (oopsie). I took the ENTIRE vacuum apart, pulled out 5 years worth of hair, dust, flaked skin and whatever else I'm inclined to spill, and spread it all thinly across the carpet. Then, I put the vacuum back together, again, with no screws left over, then sucked up all the crap I pulled out of the hose and wheelie thing, and success! The suction on my Eureka Boss Pro 2004 edition was restored to it's original black hole vortex levels.
So when it comes to fixing vacuums, I am the expert. I am also good at untying knots, especially in necklace chains.
