you have to understand people stepping on other cleaners toes do get in trouble it usauly happends because

1 the custy fel out with the window cleaner  and the chances are they never paid them

2 they are just after a one of clean and the old window cleaner has already fell for that one and the custy knows they cant pull that one again

3 the old window cleaner was crap and this is open game for anyone to canvass

look let me put it dead straight as i see it...

its none of anybody elses business what another windy does at the end of the day!

i agree you should not undercut and steal customers but to be honest there is nothing you can do about it!

do you see b.t threatening virgin for being the new kid on the block? no, because its called business

only idiots cant see this!

well bullying has been around for longer than people know,
it will never be stopped.
you just need to find your own individual way of dealing with it.

Why don't you set up a side line GB? - hire yourself out for the day to go and duff up some threatening neanderthal if we need you!  ;D

It's a game of three halves!

I think that us window cleaners are a friendly bunch 99.9 percent of the time; at least we are round here in SE Wales.  There may be one-or-two window cleaners who don't like some other window cleaners, but there's never any fighting; they just tend to stay out of each others way and gossip about them to other window cleaners.  ;D

But you and yours were threatened if I remember right?

Unfortunately our society in this country is riddled with bullies I do not know were it comes from as I have live in other countries and it is not nearly as bad as here. I cannot understand why here.
