I've got really nice people as customers. The lady whose bathroom I was working on has invited me and my family to lunch today and another customer is helping her. Can't get better than that.

Haven't heard from him and as he wasn't employed by me I don't know him. The customer had him there on a separate job and I was going home for the day when he cut through the pipe. Being a decent sort I stayed to fix it.

Lunch was delicious and that's appreciation enough for me. Even my kids enjoyed themselves today and had chocolate cake!

Some people would just have got someone else to finish the bathroom, but today I got paid and had both a really nice lunch and enjoyable day and she wants only me to finish the work in 6 weeks. Customers like that restore your faith in this industry.

Fair play for them doing that, its one less thing to worry and stress over that they will wait and are happy to wait for you to go back.

Thats just really made me laugh.

I saw a BG customer I stopped a leak for in sainsburys a while back and she wouldn't stop talking to me.

I hated every minute of it :)

I hate that, I have nothing to say to them other than about work.

I kept bumping into the same customer in a bar I go to quite a bit, or should I say used to go to. Keep seeing him there put me off going, theres only so many times I can ask how his boilers going after I fixed it for him. Yet he always feels the need to come up to me and start a conversation saying thanks for fixing my boiler.

I've got some great customers, nothing quite as extravagant as Colin's. But I agree it does make the job nicer when you work for decent people, especially when they pay on time!

I once had a customer who would fk my brains out, quite brilliant she was at it too :tongue:
I had always to go back later and get the cash from her man. I'm sure what she enjoyed most was watching him pay me!

I got fed up with her games after a while and would tell her i was too busy. I think eventually she found another victim :smile:
