Sample Answers
Do you often carry a lot of keys with you? Actually, I don't carry that many keys with me on a daily basis. I've got my house key, my car key, and that's about it. I try to keep things simple and avoid cluttering up my bag or pocket with too many unnecessary keys. Plus, with technology advancing the way it is, I've been able to switch to digital keys for some things, like my office building, which has made things a lot more convenient.
Have you ever lost your keys? Oh, yeah, I've lost my keys a time or two. It's always frustrating when it happens, but I've learned to stay calm and retrace my steps. I remember one time, I was in a rush to get to work and I must have left my keys on the kitchen counter. Luckily, my roommate was home and was able to let me back in. Now, I make sure to double-check that I've got my keys before I head out the door.
Do you often forget your keys and lock yourself out? Fortunately, I don't lock myself out very often, but it has happened. I think it's because I'm usually in a hurry or preoccupied with something else. To avoid it, I've started leaving a spare key with a trusted neighbor, just in case. It's a good feeling knowing that I've got a backup plan in place, and it's saved me from a lot of stress in the past.
Do you think it’s a good idea to leave a set of keys with a neighbor? Absolutely, I think it's a great idea. Like I mentioned earlier, I've got a spare key with a neighbor, and it's been a lifesaver. Not only is it convenient, but it's also a good way to build trust with the people around you. Of course, you've got to choose someone you trust implicitly, but if you do, it can be a real game-changer. Plus, it's always good to have a backup plan in case of an emergency.
