Post by: Steve. Taylor on February 25, 2011, 05:59:36 pm

Cleaned three rooms today the ladys husband followed me around on my shoulder,
every thing i did he watched. Got out a brush and hand tool to deal with some draught marks
under the doors, your a fussy bugger he said the other cleaner we used last year didnt bother to do that
packed up he gave me a £10 tip.

good to hear you got a tip but i blooming hate customers who follow you round. got to be extra careful as it's bound to be the time when you knock something over

If they ever follow you around Adam just engage them in conversation. You'll soon bore them stupid and they'll leave you alone.

Dont bother me if they follow and watch, even better if they give a tip cause they saw you doing something another didnt -if they hadnt seen you do that they wouldnt probably given a tip - you gave them a better service and they appreciated it.
Thats how you get tips - not by asking for one.

"Cleaned three rooms today the ladys husband followed me around on my shoulder,"

Had one of those before christmas, could have been Victor Meldrews twin brother. After about an hour of his constructive advice I suddenly but gently moved the wand around in a wide arc. Just missed his nuts with the hose end, for which of course I immediately apologised. I think he got the hint, he kept well clear!
