Three new custys today and......
« on: December 22, 2009, 04:44:17 pm »
First custy says I not being funny but any joe bloggs can clean windows.......I just smiled and got on with it, felt like saying well do em youself then

2nd and 3rd were two semis with 11 very tall windows, not been done in ages, next door neighbours, the ones sister told her I was good :) cant go wrong, right?

well I looked around, saw the large windows and quoted what I thought was a very good £9 per house.....

However, the one woman, looked at me disgusted, shouted Nooooo and walked off in a huff (even her mate looked disgusted with her, she said ok)

Whilst I was doing her windows, the other woman goes off across the road telling her neighbours I'm too dear, you know he charges £9 etc etc

First time I have had a day like this, was expecting good cheers around xmas, not here in shrewsbury, lol, I suppose I better get used to it

Yes and dont forget to squeeze your flat cap out, as if you were wringing a scrim cloth out, when asking for your money.  ;D yes sorr yes sorr.
Never take financial advice from people who have no money!

Perhaps those custies put the "Shrew" in Shrewsbury?
It's a game of three halves!
