some people have a nerve dont they?


had a call this afternoon from a woman at my golf club, done a couple of jobs for her before and recently quoted her for a bath to shower install, which is what i thought she was calling for!!

nope!.

''martin, when you changed our kitchen tap washers for us, when the hot water wouldnt come out of the taps, you did something to make it work didnt you?''

er, yes!

''well what it is we have had a new kitchen sink and taps fitted and the plumber cant get any hot water flowing out. hang on i will put him on so you can tell him what you did and how you do it''.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!@:?~>@@

i was in a loft at the time on a well paid cws tank jobbie!!

tbh, i think he hadn't a clue what i was saying to him but he did take note of fitting iso's, its a fortic tank so i hope he had fun with it. not heard back so probably got it sorted.

narks you off when they go cheap and dont understand why you cost more!! muppets.

Couldnt agree more.
 
That reminds me job couple days ago. Leaking HEX on combi, drained system, and called my merchant for price. Said I will get price next morning, so told cust that I will call him in the morning. Obviously explained that there is no heating as boiler is not working. Got call couple of hours later that there is no hot water. oh boy..
 
Had one today my mate called me up for a girl in his work wanted a PCB for her boiler i said well how much has she already been quoted ? He said £130 but its extra £20 to get it next day ! I just said well tell her thats her own fault for buyin online !

Cheeky begger wanted me to get the part and then give it to her gas fitter instead of using my own lad !
 
had another one today...
