I went out on a job this morning....it's an account I lost last year after cleaning for this custy for over 20 years. 2 weeks ago, they had one of my competitors out to clean the new carpets. I figured he knew someone on the inside, and was able to get the job. No problem....it was time consuming and I can't clean ALL the carpets in town!
Well, Friday they called and asked if I could stop in and clean some spots. I think they were embarrassed that they didn't call me back to clean 2 weeks ago. They had a list. I had to co-ordinate it with the janitorial firm to get in there today. Well, I'm disappointed in the work that the new cleaners did....it reflects on all CC'ers. The new guy even had 2 trucks to the job, and probably 4 workers.
Well, spots turn into areas, and areas turn into bigger areas.......you know how that goes.
I'm gonna have to bill them for my 2 hours I spent cleaning all the spots. I had to pull out 250 foot of hose, and extract because of the extent of the spotting. A good pad machine would have done the job, but mine is down.
I wish owner/operators would please pay more attention to the quality of their work, rather than how many and how fast they can clean. (Of course, I don't mind correcting others mistakes!)
Volume isn't everything!
