One of my best clients died on Friday.

[Mikey P]

Her family even sent me, the lowly carpet cleaner, an email to alert me to the fact.

Millie and I had become pretty good friends over the years. She was one of those little old ladies who would get me to come out for just one spot. It just drove her nuts looking at it, it was a guilt thing I suppose. She didn't want friends of family to see what a pig she was..

For a while she was a having health issues and the one spot calls were getting out of hand. I felt guilty having to charge her for so little work so I got her a Mytee spotter to deal with the little accidents.

I got Christmas cards from her every year and the referrals that come from her job have been great.


























I'll miss the little bitch.

I've been to house's where they start crying because I am there to clean up after the pet for the last time.

Almost makes me cry...for a different reason...but still.

Good story Mike.

 

[Mikey P]

No but I didn't charge her a couple of times.

 

[Mikey P]

It's been too long, remind me..

 

[Steve Toburen]

Call her attorney.

Maybe you are included in the will.

PS Seriously, I am sorry for your loss, Mikey. One of the things I enjoyed about the business was becoming "family".

No shit. I make it a point to keep a box of fresh puppies in my hot van at all times............ just in case. Always marketing.
