We all get those ' while you're here' requests don't we, today I went to a ' rads not working' job, It turns out the ole 3 port valve was knackedered, So I fixed that and charged £150 and was packing up me tools when she said, " while you're here can you just put this new tap on the kitchen sink" , I told her I've another job to get to and did't have the time, " oh my husband said it would only take a plumber 2 minutes," fuckin' cheeky twat, she wanted it doing for nowt, she did't get it, I told her I could call back next tuesday and its £50, her face dropped and she said," I'll see what my hubby says",,,,she's not rung back,,,

I was replacing some floorboards years ago and the chap's mum walked in and asked if I fit door locks. " Of course I fit door locks." She then explained that her son wanted locks on all the bedroom doors and the kitchen door. Told her I'd sort a price out with her son. Anyway, about an hour later, she walks in with a box of mortice locks and left them on the bottom of the stairs (without saying anything) Later on when I'd finished the flooring I went round to the families house to collect the readies. Got paid and fooked off home. 4 hrs later, she's on the phone to me,, " You did not fit the locks and we have paid you for them too." I told her I'd said I'd sort a price out with her son, and as no price had been sorted out, I wasn't fitting them for free... "But we have paid you." she said... "Yes, for doing the flooring in the front room, not for fitting locks." Utter morons some people.  |

People like to try it on
Once they start that way with me I don't go back, it's just looking at trouble
But, 3/4 years ago I would've gone back & got plenty of trouble
You learn slowly
