    Re: What’s the most stupid things customers say?

    Annoys the **** out of me when you book a call for, say, 2/4 slot with a customer, they say no problem, then as you’ve written it in they say either,
    1. yes can you make it about half three then, I’m out till then
    2. but I’ve got to go on the school run I’ll only be out for half an hour from 2.45
    3. but I’ve got to leave at 4, leaving you no time to do most jobs anytime after 3.30. 👿

    Re: Bad Integrated Appliance Installation

    At a call before Chrimble I was doing the usual huffing and puffing getting out a Bosch integrated dishwasher. Took ages to get the thing out as all the plumbing was twisted up behind plywood cabinet backs. Very neat but totally impractical. Everything siliconed in place and about 2mm clearance to get the machine out onto newly fitted tiles. I had just finished getting it out, muttering about kitchen fitters etc, when in walks Hubby from work…..wearing his work fleece with the logo of a well known (expensive) kitchen fitting company on it. My how we all laughed about his solid installation technique and his ‘once they’re in, they’re in’ references……..until they got the bill that is 😈

    First idiot of the day.
    ‘How much to service my dryer?’
    She’d been resetting her Hotpoint CTD dryer 😯 for 18 months after getting info on the net on how to repair it(pin in one shot), but now it’s heating up all the time, just taking ages to dry, noisy etc.
    Mention of fire hazard etc went over her head, didn’t faze her at all.

    When she decided it might not be worth repairing she asked if I would buy it :clown: and sell her a second hand one (not a chance even if I did sell s/h stuff).
    Conversation ended with her asking who sells cheap second hand dryers 👿
