[54gka]

Just done a 15 mile round trip to quote a hedge cut for an old boy.Took a look at me and my truck tried to introduce my self he blanked me so thought he might be deaf so tried again a bit louder still nothing.He asked if i worked for myself.Yes sir I've my own company huh he replied your be far to expensive for me then:confused1: how would you know that sir i might only charge £3 ph, do you he asked, no i said, see told you your to expensive. I asked him how he had heard about me a friend highly recommended you.I asked if they had told him that i charge for my services yes he said but i still won't be able to pay what you want:confused1:. Ok i see I'm not getting anywhere here so said goodbye to him and left.STRANGE that one.

Maybe should of told the chauffeur to park the Bentley round the corner:laugh1:

Firstly I would have lied,.. Never admit to it being your company.

 

Then you could have just said, "what that old truck" " yeah been meaning to upgrade but the boss is a tight ass"

 

Would have also said that you would charge 3phr but the job looks like it would take 4 days to complete. (Depending on what the job was of course. Longer for a bigger job)
