Should those hiring tree surgeons be reading this, take note!

 

and remember, if your ignorant to those working for you, when you ask "you couldnt just do this while your here could you" expect to be told certainly but it will cost you!

 

make the lads a brew, and they will most likely do you a favour

My wife made the guys doing the block drive bacon rolls and coffee - they did a cracking job though and good value so I think it worked.

 

Cheeky sods did the neighbours drive and asked me for bacon rolls and coffee - I said ask the new boss:001_tt2:

most offer tea over here, especially country people . one of our nicest customers (a well known agri machinery manifacturer) gives us a fry at 11 soupand sandwiches at 2 and coffee and biccies at 4. plus lads always get a tip. job always seems to overrun somehow

My policy has always been if your nice to us i'll happily wangle a few extras

(within reason)

I must say i'm pretty bad at making people tea, but i'll often show them where things are and let them help their selves.

Tell my young draggers to use the word 'please' when client asks if you'd like a drink,and 'thanks' when brought out.And we always take the mugs back pronto in the hope of more later.

Whether contractors are coming to my house or to my work, I'll always offer tea/coffee. Never batted an eyelid at it, just thought it was standard.

 

On private jobs, we get coffees about half the time. Always best to bring a few cans of Monster though just in case they aren't so generous!

Day's gone bye on EEB - for every connection alteration an apprentice was sent to the customer to inform that 'all was well' and could she plug something in to test the supply 'like a kettle' -happy days.....

Aw, shucks

 

It hasn't stopped them starting up the sodding genies at stupid o'clock in the morning though! I might have to try a few custard creams with the tea next time if I want a lay in
