Tips after a job

[alex_m]

You would think that the run up to christmas would be rife with tips, but we usually do alot of LA work the only tip we might get is on the end of a discarded needle!!

I got a tip for not cutting a tree down. Bloke was about to sell his house that night and asked if we could leave that 1 tree in till end of job then came back with 20quid. Some people are greatfull others are just tight

I got 2 tips in 3 jobs in one week, £20 each on one and £5 each on the other. The first one we spent all day talking to the elderly customer who couldn't prune the trees herself but wanted to see every cut we made! Planned to be done at 12, 4 hours later we were packing away! She was very pleased with the result. There wasn't that much pruning either.

Never seen a £15 note! I only do small jobs for little old ladies etc but have been given a wheelbarrow, Stihl strimmer and an unnamed petrol lawnmower amongst other things. Those who grow vegetables etc always give me a selection to try.

 

Neither have I but seen a £10+£5
