you have to understand people stepping on other cleaners toes do get in trouble it usauly happends because
1 the custy fel out with the window cleaner and the chances are they never paid them
2 they are just after a one of clean and the old window cleaner has already fell for that one and the custy knows they cant pull that one again
3 the old window cleaner was crap and this is open game for anyone to canvass
-
look let me put it dead straight as i see it...
its none of anybody elses business what another windy does at the end of the day!
i agree you should not undercut and steal customers but to be honest there is nothing you can do about it!
do you see b.t threatening virgin for being the new kid on the block? no, because its called business
only idiots cant see this!

well bullying has been around for longer than people know,
it will never be stopped.
you just need to find your own individual way of dealing with it.

Why don't you set up a side line GB? - hire yourself out for the day to go and duff up some threatening neanderthal if we need you! ;D

I think that us window cleaners are a friendly bunch 99.9 percent of the time; at least we are round here in SE Wales. There may be one-or-two window cleaners who don't like some other window cleaners, but there's never any fighting; they just tend to stay out of each others way and gossip about them to other window cleaners. ;D
But you and yours were threatened if I remember right?
-
im no big hard man, but then afgain you dont need to be when you know gracie jiu jitsu!
-
i would love someone to try and threaten me when im canvassing! ;D

was kinda bullied by the manager of a 'big firm' in my hometown.
Screaming & shouting at me, accusing me of being a theif. And telling me i am lucky that he hasnt smashed my face in.
thing was, police werent intrested when i told them
-
no, you are not taking it too seriously, the thing is... people will make light of it because they are afraid to make the stand you are making, hence make a joke...
It is a problem which should stop right now.
No one owns an area ! end of...
got that ?
bully boys ?
-
thanks gazza. and that is my conclusion on this topic... NOBODY owns the streets only the council hehe. peace out.
-
What about a licensing scheme? It would sort out all the benefit cheats...say on the dole = no licence.
-
police are never intrested, but the tax man is, find out where the bloke lives and tell tax man, that he employes loads of lads all cash in hand, most business are more scared of the tax man than the police

dont get me wrong, i never 'grassed' him. Im not that type of person.
But the other chap in question phoned the law, about the alleged theft. And after i was interviewed and released, then i just mention what happened on the roadside. And apparently, filing a complaint would be "pointless"
but she was a sexy little blonde [which i found out she is already married :( ;D ] so i listened to her ;D
