had enough of this customer

[Dave B]

You may remember i had a customer rip me off last month and was adamant i quoted her differently than i did

Anyway she rang me just now and asked could I do her upvc cladding round the back above conny

I said no

So she says oh i was asking because i want it done and last time you didn't clean my back windows (which i did trad pole and she watched me do it )

I never swear at customers but i lost the plot

" i tell you what love **** off" and put the phone down

Have blocked her mobile number and will be doing the old dear next door on monday who i do the tops for (70 ish and still.does the bottoms herself)

I only do it as she is next door to the other job

I will go out of my way to do hers and be seen doing it

[TolishAPurd]

gd point smurfy

 

[Smurf]

I know it very hard at times not to lose it completely but I try to always remain cool when dealing with awkward customers and not swear and/or shout at them.

 

[seye]

Have to agree with Smurf mate don't bring yourself down to their level by letting em wind you up, easier said than done at times thought.

 

[Dave B]

I don't usually lose it but sometimes it can't be helped

The old man i am not worried about

 

[Smurf]

If like me you feel quite bad afterwards but that must be the paddy in us./emoticons/biggrin.png

 

[Dave B]

How much paddy are you?

Thought they were green not blue

Like a lot of us i have irish family but my mum was born here and my dad is english

It still shows when out drinking though lol

 

[Juniorjedi]

Daveyboy, I remember you saying in a previous thread that you are in Stevenage. I think I met this customer today. It wasn't valley way was it?

 

[Dave B]

How the **** do you know that? ?

Where are you based??

 

[Dave B]

Steer clear mate she will **** you about big time

 

[Adams0211]

I'm based in Stevenage. I've been reading these forums for about six months now and remembered you saying before that you were in Stevenage.

I'm having a problem with my account on here at the moment. It keeps trying to link with my Facebook account so I'm not sure if it will let me post properly or if it'll show a different username.

 

[Dave B]

Are you nca aka neil adams lol

 

[Adams0211]

It's letting me post now but is showing my real username. I obviously cocked something up but it's working properly now.

 

[Adams0211]

Yes mate. You heard of me then?

 

[Dave B]

Mr squeegee lol
