"She probably knew what she was doing" has led to many disasters.
Just pointing that out.

.. Kendra thinks as she applies too much lubricant.
For a wooden window frame circa 1912 you'd want to use something with high viscosity, like grease or wax, which would have to be rubbed on the rails. Soaking it with oil would make the wood swell, and cause the window to become completely stuck ... but probably not right away, so I guess if you just need to open the window right now and are not worried about closing it again, this is a viable option.

teg: In Kendra's case, there isn't really the concept of 'again' to worry about here. There literally isn't enough time. I would agree, not something you do to actual windows.

I assume not everything has gone smoothly on Kendra's end.

The thing to do here is play up your nervousness. It's your first day on the job and you've already messed up real bad! You've been so worried that you completely forgot the package and didn't realize until now!
