  3. I have a list of people I'm to busy for.
     
  4. Customers/ clients are seldom right. Fortunately the client / Manuel worker divide has long. With an established reputation I seldom take any sort of Marmite from a Client. I love it when they've looked up things and tell you how to do the job
    Which reminds me, I must have a word with my accountant

    Or a lot of people who do well enough to pick and choose their work.
    Everyone I know in the building trade has people they won't work for, whether it be individuals or groups (i.e lawyers). Its not unusual.

  10. Ah so that's why I can never getting a *****ing tradesman round here ... lucky I'm a bright cookie who also left school and did a four year apprenticeship so can do a better job than the Marmite that some supposed craftsman do

  11. When you are as good as I am it's really hard to keep the ego in check.
     
  12. Top of my list is the heathens that have Nissan micra or some such Japanese nonsense engines in their classic Volkswagen

  16. You were already on it

    :thumbsup:
     
  17. you dont like demanding customers
     
  18. To be honest I don't really like customers -prefer doing own projects now and am fortunate that I have worked hard enough that I can pick and choose who I work for and on what jobs. To a greater extent also when I do the work.

    There we are. Big headed, probably, arrogant, probably but there we jolly well go!
     
  19. I have the same problem, most of the tradesmen have retired or just called it a day. Clients can be hard work
