Bite your tongue.

I'll explain.

We've all heard the jokes like, "I've got a bush that needs trimming" etc etc

So when I arrived at a hedge cutting job yesterday for a new female customer and she says "I want you to smash it as hard as you can".

 

I nearly died and found it almost an impossible job to not laugh, she clearly didn't realise what she had said.

 

And then when I'd finished smashing the hedge as hard as I could, to top her earlier comment she said " That's exactly what I wanted, the man I had before never smashed it that hard".

 

I laughed all the way home, the wife luckily saw the funny side too.

 

Any one else had funny bite your tongue moments?

I once knew fellow colleague who was called out to give a bid on some hedge work by a female customer. When he got to the house and rang the bell the customer answered the door and was all commando and wanted more than an estimate, pronto!. My colleague was already married and explained as much to the customer. He did tell me he did not get the job, however I suspect he wont be forgetting that estimate for a long time to come. OBTW, she was a looker for sure.

Quoted for a job at local house owned by an escort. There was a vehicle parked in the drive I recognised . As we walked past the living room window there was a pair of hiflex with braces boots and orange Stijl tshirt turns out a rival got there before me and must of taken a deposit.

 

Or left one.
