If we accept a favour or nice gesture and pay it back two fold....just imaging what the outcome will be.

BTW - thanks to the driver that let me pull over in Norwich when I found myself in the wrong lane approaching the football ground!

Might be as simple that the world of work has changed, flexible office working is normal now, a few days in the office, a few days at home. Before it was all in the office. Perhaps the assholes were always in the streets where you worked... but you never met them because your worlds never met?

 

My road is quiet, not enough people to be arsy with, but when I am out and about the proportions of the good, the bad and the ugly are about the same as always.

People do seem to complain about stuff more than they used to and I’ve noticed a huge amount of silly road accidents lately.

Decent communication skills are vital for a tree works contractor.

making it clear what the spec is , what’s involved, how long it’ll take etc.

Well worthwhile spending a few minutes at quotation and planning stages and a quick chat with the neighbours to let them know there will be noise etc for a day or two , it’s only common courtesy.

Also , you find out early if customer or neighbours are going to be difficult.

A tree crew turning up with chainsaws screaming woodchipper roaring can seem quite intimidating if it’s unexpected .

You’ve annoyed me with your thread title, right now I can only think of 1!  Be a good chap and change it!

 

Pretend to look for something in your handbag if your fragile sensibilities can't cope with quite normal invective. It was better when it was called the thing it was about. Now it's another covid thread.

It wasn’t an appropriate thread title.
