Post by: woody1 on February 15, 2012, 07:35:53 pm
Was working away today when the flow went so i walked round to the van to find my hose had been chopped in half. Look down the road a windy stood there shouted i clean here not you well cut a long story short i had a row with him and he punched me, my custy called the police and he got nicked down the road. On the plus side i stole his custy down the road as they said the felt unsafe now so to the idiot unlucky i always win lol  ;D

woody can you clarify who shouted, "I clean here not you" ? just wondering, only you say he is newbie seems strange he would shout it or cut your hose, or did you shout it, if so what right did you have to do so?

still cutting your hose and punching you is wrong whatever the answer

just to clarify he shouted at me i am only guessing he is new as never seen him before or his car  and yeah i am going to play on it to get more custy's and yeah i am going to get him to replace hose and reel as i think its the least to do.

Given the nature of the work it surprises me that this type of thing doesn't happen more often.  Some on here have told stories of being threatened over the phone but that's mostly just hot air.  Actually carrying out a threat takes a different kind of idiot and that doesn't seem representative of most windys I've met and those who come on here.

I hope you do get loads of publicity and new work on the strength of it and also that this fella loses more than money and his reputation.

If that happened to me it would be a green light to blitz the entire neighbourhood.

Kick him in the teeth as hard as you can. Then kick him down again.

Thugs and bullies need it.

You had to take the rest of the day off too didn't ya to go and find a place to replace your hose. Loss of earnings for the day. Had £400 worth of work left that day didn't ya?

If he cut your hose ,you should point out that you thought he may of hada knife also.unlikly to have used scissors . The carrying off a knife for this type of use is a big NO NO in its self.

not sure that would be true, he would well be in his right to carry a scraper for the windows.

If im honest i have got a criminal record for given a bloke a kicking outside a pub for hitting a girl in the pub, i would of loved to do the same to him for hitting me but i have a family to feed so have to be carefull, i could end up on the wrong side of the law hence why the police were called.

Best way, Woody.  What would your customers think of you brawling in the street?  Maybe some would be okay with it, but others would just think that you're a thug.
