We're shutting down Saturdays, I'm old and tired.
Yet if my week is slow because the weather 105-110 all week, I booked a couple jobs before I had to help my daughter move.
First job 4 rooms $140 quoted over the phone.
$35 per up to 200 sq ft.
Get there and she's has 4 areas but insist we don't move this or that.
So I drop 10% and say fine $126.00
She says BUT, your not doing the whole room!
Eventually I broke it down to 3 rooms hall $120 10% off $108.
She's how about $100?
At this point t I don't even want to work,
So I said you know when you were quoted the $140 over the phone?
If that was to much you probably should've shopped around.
She says if "your going to be rude we don't have to do it."
Fine have a nice day!
I don't think she even realized she cost me $20 with gas and my helper making $12 an hour to help me.
I just hate the Monty Hall let's make a deal.
When you room price and quote before you go it's supposed to weed out the idiots.
And I'm fine with that.
