Ever feel like there are too many hypcrits in our industry? I guess by that I mean cleaners who are so narrowed minded, complete cheep asses, or plain ignorant to make a proclamation that their "method" is the only REAL method. In the last week we have had a new dri cleaner (read host style cleaner) start up bashing the HWE guys, read several posts on encapsulation board(s) that bash the HWE guys and plenty of HWE guys who bash everybody else.
Just feels like there are way to many "professionals" who can't recognize that any method used is simmply a tool to accomplish the end result. Each has its place and as long as its being performed correctly, can be effective in those particular situations.
Sorry to vent, but you see all of the great cleaners on this board and even some good cleaners around town that "get it," but its the method bashing one method only guys that seem to draw the most publicity and thus put a black eye to our industry.
Add to that the ugly mess that is the CRI and the IICRC... and for every step forward they take in educating the public about the benefits of carpet, they take us 8 steps back plus a few for the ignorant cleaners. It seems all to often that our staff must re-educate our customers whether it be on cleaning or purchasing.
ugggg.. ok i feel better... thanks for the therapy session boys.. (and girls) I think I'm really making some progress!
Goodnight! :mrgreen:
