Same people often use images like this one for publicity which fools the unsuspecting public but rings alarm bells for those who know better.

Another pet peeve of mine is people who try and discredit other companies online by any means they can to make up for their own short comings in business.

those fairy lights people stick round their lawns...   then expect me to go round picking and replanting them when I mow.. fkers..

 

Yea and similar to Steve, people who use social media to dog a company after they buy somethin and its didn't work out for them..   could be a number of reasons including they broke it but wont admit it, then upload a Utube vid slagging them off in hopes of compensation of sorts..   or just brazenly start a thread with the same intent.   

 

Insurance scammers, contact police, get a Crime number then go on social media as a follow up to make the claim seem legit...  I'll bet theres been a few on here over the years done that.

I had a 460 seize a couple of years ago after being run on neat fuel, every single one of the staff(4 in total) denied being the ones who mixed the fuel.  Pretty sure it was 1 of 2 people, but what can you do in that situation?

Sack them both as a lesson to others...

 

The innocent one would be guilty in lacking initiative by not taking responsibility in mixing the fuel himself anyway, so no real loss

Not easy if you are subbing in and they provide it. It's why I won't use other people's fuel when I work for them.
