Customer said to me once "so you clean yourself before my carpets!!". After I was found in the bath tub. 8)

Lads at base found it very amusing, the boss didn't!

Have cleaned someone's curtains before using a carpet wand whilst keeping a look out at the same time, whilst a mate was sleeping off a hangover on  the custards three seater.

Oh the good old ChemDry days!! ;)

Cleaning a suite the other day. Cleaned one sofa frame, then wheeled the second sofa frame onto the sheet. Custy comes into room and says hows it going, I says great!
She looked at the sofa I was about to clean and said....yes it's come up realy well! ::)

What about the customers who say after youve just cleaned her carpet and groomed it, and she comes in and says "its looking better allready"  ???

People say that money is not the key to happiness, but I always figured if you have enough money, you can have a key made!
