Funny one today
« on: February 27, 2013, 03:32:57 pm »
had a funny awkward one today...

always cleaned this large house 4 monthly very well priced job because of the frequency.  well cleaned it the other day and was passing today to collect the money, the Liverpudlian gentleman was to say the least a little upset for he had only just moved in and never arranged for a window cleaner and why was it so expensive!

i apologized and said i didn't realize it was new people in the house and of course i wouldn't charge, was just one of those things and explained lower frequency's are cheaper, once it was understood that despite driving a ford  transit i wasn't actually a burglar i ended up getting the house on a 8 weekly at a fair price and he paid this price for the work i carried out, thought i recognised him so i looked up the name and hes a pro footballer as well.

no i wont say who :-p

A different profession but a house not far from myself ended up with their extension roof being re slated after the contractor sent the workers to the wrong address ::)roll
