new boiler installation story

[dontknowitall]

If a customer stands behind me while I'm working, after a while I stop and chat to them. After around 15 minutes they sort of realise nothing is being done and they're paying for my chatting time and make an excuse they have to get on and do something else!!

I imagine the boiler cover was off for test purposes, I can't see why he would have left the front off for any other reason.

My remark was that if it had been commissioned he could have left the cover and unless somebody intentionally or accidentally put their hand in side they would probably come to no harm.

Most boiler covers that are not part of the gas train simply hook on and off anyway and don't serve any safety purposes other than what I have already explained.

No i dont stand behind people when they are working, nobody can work when people are stood behind them i know that. I've had plenty of trademen in here i just let them get on with it. As for this thread getting tedious i know what you mean i'm getting tired of writing it. But i've started it now so i feel like i've got to finish it.

i did have a job where there was a stub of lead coming out of a floor and i had to replace an old stopcock, well the customer wanted to make a video for his dad to see when he came back from where ever , well i was out in the van looking for bits and i turn around and this nutter is standing there with a video camera lol
