That quote is just a generality that i use to describe people in all walks of life that get mentally lazy in their profession and the only thing they can stand on is their years in the trade whatever that may be.These are people that are not progressive and have not kept up with the times.
It was not meant to be pointing at any individual.
Mardie, you just illustrated several points many of us have trying to point out
"is just a generality that i use to describe people in all walks of life that get mentally lazy in their profession"
exactly !!
and it has NOTHING to do with the tool..it's the man running the tool.
"These are people that are not progressive and have not kept up with the times"
Mardie, my
friend, you may very well have plenty "life experience" but you don't have enough "carpet cleaning" experience with different methods, chems and tools to know what "cutting edge" or progressive means in this biz
(no, renting a porty a couple times a year to clean your home carpets with Rug Doctor soap don't count)
and Brother, no offense , but there's nothing about VS shampoo method that's "with the times" .
Shampooing carpets in general is a VERY OLD technique ..literally "ancient" in fact
They've been whipping up foam with a variety of methods to clean textiles for a LOOOOONNNGG time before VS
the "progressive" movement of shampoo method has been in the chems .
The trend today are the pixie dust encap juices.
We can debate whether or not "dry and brittle" or "crystallizing polymers" are the same as a practical matter
But what's not debatable (to anyone that know carpet cleaning history" there's nothing "new or progressive" about shampooing a carpet
stick around Mardie .
You'll learn a lot here when the battery dies in the Racine Wi mind control chip they planted
You'll be a better carpet cleaner when that happens
cause I'm sure you , (like most of us here) always strive to be better
..L.T.A.
