I remember one customer I had in the UK. She was a widow, nice enough as a person but always had something to complain about. Her general demeanor was one of negativity, so my nickname for her was Mrs Half-Empty.

Haha great thread.
I got one woman I sacked and took back a few times, but she kept being nice at last minute and giving me extra etc.
Her name was moany-Lisa.
Sacked her for good last week after going to Bacs and she still couldn't pay.  Sometimes your best leaving the dross where it belongs !!

[capn sparkle]

Only ever named one - The Willy Waggler

Slippers, V neck jumper, untold amounts of dandruff, very sweaty looking and in his 40's still living with his wheelchair bound mum in a bungalow and obviously never worked in his life.

Back in the day when traditional I was soaping up a large frosted window and was convinced that the custie performed some sort of strange dance in the hallway! Something seemed wrong but I couldn't put my finger on it.  6 weeks later, cleaned the front and popped round the side to the frosted one, soaped it up then went straight to the back where I could look down the hallway. There stood my now ex custie with his jeans and pants round his ankles jiggling about for all his worth glancing into the front room to check mum can't see him.

I believe the phrase 'Babies arm holding an orange' would be suitable to describe what I saw, the only saving grace being that he wasn't stood to attention. And yes I did finish the bungalow, got paid and never went back, although the muppet rang me 7-8 weeks later see why I hadn't cleaned and couldn't understand why I no longer wished to clean 'due' to his dancing.

Mine was the love doctor.

Way back i was canvassing and i called on a lady to ask if she wanted a window cleaner.

She said 'oh no thanks there is no way my husband would ever pay to have the windows cleaned...hes a tight g**.

So i said do you know of Lee Evans. Puzzled...."yes" she said.  Well look up ypu tube sexy sat navs, there is a bit on how to get your husband to do whatever you want him to do..

So anyway i thought that was it and was just making a bad call funnier.

Anyway 3 days later i get an enquiry...its the husband of the same lady i called on and booked him in. He seemed very happy to have his windows cleaned...and as he was a GP we called him the love doctor.
