Hi all,

Not wishing to dig out an old thread, but it fits so well on this one. I did enjoy Propoles descriptions of cowboys.

Try this - I know of a local window cleaner who is a cowboy without a doubt. He changes his uninsured and possibly untaxed cars (depends on last owner as to legality) almost weekly it seems. We saw him yesterday in a car with sofa cushions  proclaiming to be a roof rack!!!!

Maybe he didn't get a sunroof with that model?

In conversation he's told me after acquiring the round from his business partner (who turned out to be a paedophile, now locked away) he turns up when he needs to = needs some cash. Difficult customers - drop 'em; hassle. They tell me when to come  - drop 'em; what day to clean them - drop 'em....

Q: Have you gone into that WFP thing now then?
A: Yes John, it's brillliant no need to climb ladders to stupid heights to carve a living...

Quote " We've never had problems with ladders, except for Dave who snapped mine. he was a fat f****r anyway. I took the price of the ladder from his wages. Lucky for him he fell on his fat *r*e"     ??? :o :o >:(
 
P.S: He cleans the windows at Cash Converters for a discount on cashed personal cheques - ie: no come  back  from the tax man....

Mini rant over,

Ben

I don't consider myself a cowboy but I won't let my customers dictate when I can clean either.

Vision on, there's more cowboys in that post of yours than in the average Clint Eastwood movie! ;D

Made me laugh anyway!
It's a game of three halves!
