When the price is, say £85 and the customer has £90, so I fumble about looking for a fiver which I don't have and they just stand there waiting. I just want to say "Give me the ninety ya tight git I`ve done a great job for you"
Happened last week and she had money, I said just "give me the eighty", but I`ll catch her next time.
Another one, I tossed him for it and he won, had a laugh and moved on.
Yeah I should carry a few fivers on me.
Anyway guys have a good one and don`t get too pashed.

It's not really dirty, so can you give it only a light going over
Customers water pressure being very low, on some jobs I swear that I could piddle quicker :o

Getting a cll Sunday afternoon asking can you come at 9-15 Monday morning instead of 9am.  No problem

Then you turn up at 9-15 on the Monday (that is today-last job before the break) and all the curtains are still drawn and 2 long rings on the bell does'nt get them up. And if it did you just know the room is going to be as it was on Sunday night.

Getting fingers bitten by dogs delivering leaflets through letterboxes. You hear them sometimes running to the door but there are some that adopt a silent approach.
