Title: jealous of other wc
Post by: daz1977 on April 19, 2010, 08:34:32 am
there seems to be a lot of jealous of other wc lately, either becasue they have huge contrats and people are ready to shoot them down, saying they must be undercutting or backhanders, or must just be lying

or when a wc works on his own and is busy, but just cheaper than someone else, then all hell brakes lose saying must be dole cheat,

no wonder loads of people are leave lately, must get sick of being attacked every thime they say something

rant over

yeah notice this also. A lot of snobbery also over people who trad or if system is DIY. At the end of the day we are all cleaners. Don't matter that much if ye ask me.

Also people who charge low take it tight also. It's not all about money for everyone. I am one of thos epeople. If i have enough then so be it.

usually when we have a bad spell of weather the bitching starts, or a relationship breakdown as in the case of the bitch Jonah the JW from Huddersfield one minute he was getting married the next she had run off with the local butcher ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yes its sad but true,  I myself have fallen into the trap of these type of posts, as The Bible says "Bad association spoil useful habbits" it sadly rubs off onto all of us, me sadly me aswell

Lets all try to be helpfull and caring, as the Bible says we have to "love our enemy".

I know this will will be quoted and come back to me, but I will try

I have always thought this to be a british habit.
Whan I lived in the states people over there would see someone doing well and say "one day that will be me" but the brits seem to say "look at that #**@ I bet he is on the rob"
Its in all walks of life not just WC.

im still putting the flames out from one of my recent posts  :o

forum postings are like text messages (especially the ones I send to my ex wife) easily taken the wrong way (but the ex was always after a row  ;D )

i actually spoke to another windy today! didnt get off to a good start, he was cleaning a neighbours house, and said to me "or not another one! thought i had seen them all! (he was being serious, i just laughed)

he saw me again ten minutes later when i was back around the front, and said sarcastically "your not that nice guy whos charging £23 a house are you?" i said well yes i charge £25, £30, £40 sometimes,

he walked off shaking his head, he came back later and started slagging windys who are overcharging, and giving windys a bad name, and said in 3 years time all these newbies with wfp will all disappear and we will have to clean up the mess after them?

he showed me his gear, which comprised of a resin barrel, and 250 ltr tank, and thought that it was cheaper to do it that way, rather than lugging a 650 ltr tank and paying extra in fuel economy? (he fills up at custies homes) mad! btw hes been in the game 30 yrs!

all in all a very pessimistic, negative guy, wasting his money on resin! shame!  :(
