A normal day with Clara

On a Monday at 6 am, a caller from Chillum says the water heater in the garage is leaking and there is no hot water. Clara answers, asks what is happening and where it is. She tells the caller to close the cold water valve on the heater and to stay away from outlets near the water. Then she checks your calendar, reads back the date and the Washington address, and offers the first free slot.
