I’m having a Damon kinda day!

[hogjowl]

Had a really old, grumpy, regular customer make an appointment for us to clean her carpets today. Both her and her husband remind me of those two old farmers in that classic painting where they’re holding a pitchfork. They act like two JW’s that just saw you throw their gospel track in the garbage can.

I scheduled Brady to do their cleaning because he’s young and needs the seasoning customers like this give you. (Plus, they like him better than me.) So, having successfully dodged a cranky customer, I was feeling good about today. I had a new customer call me yesterday. She sounded really sweet, old, and lonely over the phone. She only had one room of carpet and could I send someone over as soon as possible? I decided I could handle a one room job, so I scheduled her for this morning too.

She really was a sweet old lady. I enjoyed meeting her, but her one room job turned out to be a LR/DR of white carpet with black traffic lanes and filtration soil from hell! She also wanted every piece of furniture moved! It took me two hours to clean that place and when I was done all she said was “it looks better.”

At least she smiled when she said it.

I think she wanted Brady too!

Probably thinking to herself, "I'm never going to call that grumpy old guy again. I thought there was a cute, young guy working for them. My girlfriend who recommended them needs better glasses.

MAYBE!!!

God I hate cleaning for old people!

 

[hogjowl]

We’ve all cleaned for our share of Stockwell’s that’s for sure!

“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the
inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost
children.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious
anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.”

Try this quote tomorrow when you pick up the phone.

Speaking of weird posts, where’s Steve been lately?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Yea, hope he is ok.

This is why she'll die alone.

Was the thermostat set at 80?

 

[hogjowl]

I never saw it, but I didn’t notice it being unusually hot like most old peoples houses.

I bet Vawters is set on 80.
