DOG CRAP this aint plesant at anytime A customer expects me to do a certain window , DONT think so , dog crap all in the area where i need to stand (as if )
Why do customers think for one minute we will put up with anything ?
I explained to the customer i missind a window and PUT IT bluntly i dont want dog sh it all over my hose, this then gets allover the place including your hands .
I just cant belive that a customer can expect you to stand in the sh it .
NOW DUMPED

The dog dumped as well .

I agree we do not need to be treated with this type of contempt. We must be a little assertive with these type of custies.

It's even worse when doing window trad and you walk the doggie doos up the rungs of the ladder and as you come down, it ends up on your hands.
The only two times I've ever lost the plot window cleaning were with excessive cat doos that I didn't notice untill too late and when I slipped over on some human puke outside a front door that customer jokingly admitted was his due to a skin full the night before.

more ...heaving or turning the air blue with my language.

Recently dropped a good paying job for the same reason.
First time she had cleaned up and told us second time dog turds everywhere!!
Not going back.
Yesterday pole hose got trodden in cat c**p before I noticed it had been pulled up inside the pole and plastered all over.
Took ages to clean up had to go home and change too - Nightmare.

lost it with a customer a fortnight ago but she absolutely loved it and fired back at me with both barrels !

I've seen a customers garden full of dog crap and they still let their little kids play football etc. in the grass.
I think some people just don't care.
-
I had one the other day. Payed me when I arrived,
Tells me they have 2 new dogs, so I cleaned the front and then
Went round the back.
I was just every where!! Smeared all over the paving and grass
So I knocked on the door and gave them the money for the back.
Told them that it would get all over my shoes and my hose
They looked at me like I was stupid ???
-
I had a custy do me for a tenner the other day .
I should have realised the moment she opened the back gate there was dog poope upon dog poope it has never been cleaned up as it is feckin everywhere .
Then the cheeky bitch txt the next day to say she wasn't happy as there were some smudges on the windows , so went back yesterday and could I see any smudges could I feck ?

If she can't see the layers of dog turds how come she could see any smudges on her windows?
Last fella I worked for cleaned a nice detached 5 bedroom house on a nice area, but round the back of the house was a minefield of chod. I mean fence-to-fence barkers eggs. Spent more time tip-toeing thru the brown mess than cleaning glass and the smell in summer....... :-X
Wouldnt drop him 'cos he reckoned he needed the £8 job more than the hassle, stench and general ikkiness :o
-
ive got a sweet £35nder job its somesort of a vet place not the walk in kind i think emergency or kenals pet care etc.
anyway the stench at the rear is horrible dryed dog p and crap im talking about cleaning windows outside and you are about 4 foot away from the doors and you can smell it from outside not to mention all around its horrible i have only done it 3 times and i dont think i can continue ;/
i also find my self WFPling the crap they forgot to pick up (path wise im sure there is plenty in the back garden) i spray on the tiny bits of crap to move it so it doesnt get on hose i do use gloves Showa 377 i get 3 every 3 months but we mustnt really have these kind of customers ;/
-
Kick these types of customers into tough we don`t need there crap or dogs crap.

I dropped all of my dog crap customers all in 1 go last year ... was sitting at computer looking at month ahead on George at start of month and then seen I had these orrible jobs to go to during month and thought "you know what Im not doing them" wiped £80 a month off income but by end of month had replaced most of them.
felt better for doing it and coincidently most of them were crap payers so all in all right thing to do ............. never had a call of any of them asking why I hadnt been.

I have a job on my rounds which belongs to a doctor. it was great till they got 2 Labradors.
Gradually it got worse till in the end i could not handle it anymore, it was disgusting, damn stuff got everywhere.
So i wrote them a letter saying I was not prepared to work in it any more as it was a health hazard.
I said i would text the day before and expect it to be cleared up.
No problems since :)
