What is wrong with me?

[Nomad74]

Yesterday was a very interesting day. I had a customer get sick on me at the last minute and reschedule. Okay, no big deal, I just moved around some vacant PM jobs to fill in the gap. It's nice being busy.

I got to the PM job and figure I'll just bang it out quick. I go inside and do my precleaning black light inspection. Bam! The carpet lights up like a disco studio. Due to the large amount of urine work (8-10 gallons), I had to reschedule the job for later next week.

As I sit here, I'm so damn excited about going back for all this urine work. I can't wait! I'm armed with 5 cases of Saiger's P-Lime and two cases of PureForce EOC-X2. So exciting!

I used the P-Lime for the first time the other day one a urine soaked couch and then again on a white carpet with lots of yellowing from a wayward Pug. The results were terrific.

Just think how excited you'd be if you had a red, super high quality snow shovel handle on your urine light..

Don't tempt me!

 

[Mikey P]

Btw, I haven't used 8 gallons of a piss product in the last ten years.

That was just the last two weeks here.

Do you have a website asking for pee pee work?

No! I'd drown in it if I did.

Rentals and repeats.

Here's the thing with the urine work. I don't actively go after it. When I first started my business I would shirk off the urine jobs. Then as I started getting PM work I had to deal with it. I had to learn to deal with it correctly so I wouldn't have call backs or complaints from new tenants. I made it my mission to become great at dealing with urine. Now I have other cleaners referring me their large urine work and the PM companies don't even question my pricing or recommendations anymore. I back everything up with a video of the inspection via a link on their invoice. It's not glamorous and it's very time consuming. But I feel good when I walk away from a job knowing the next tenant won't have to deal with odors or yellowing.

You should have soaked it down then.

So all this urine excitement got me thinking. So I ran a report to see how much urine treatment I have actually done. Well, this sent me off on a 1 hour search in my database. It took so long because I had a different names for every urine job. The service name would vari from "Urine Treatment, WaterClaw, deep Flus, Urine Decon, Pet Stain Removal". So I had to go through every job for the last year and change everything to the standard "Urine Treatment". I now have a clearer picture.

Although it might not be impressive for you big guys out there, my total so far for the year is $5,060 in just Urine work. It should be more next year since I have started using a faster technique and now offer the service more.

I see that your services were greatly appreciated. Was your tips received spread out over multiple jobs ?

I'm trying to figure that out. I'm not sure what happened there. I think someone might have rounded up and I may have just put it in as a tip.

Here was my actual Tips. I never ask for tips and when I see people wondering I always tell them it's not necessary. I tell them just give me a referral.

 

[Old Coastie]

I put tips in the vacation jar.

Then Herself borrows money from it for groceries, telling me to pay it back since I ate the food.

One of these days I’ll figure out what is wrong with this picture.

I need a Damon type in my area

You can have all my piss calls

If I haven't worked for you before, I usually don't bother returning the call

Isn't our job dirty enough already?

 

[steve_64]

Pee equals$$$

Nobody argues that you need to charge extra.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Whatever you are charging it's time to raise your prices Damon. Piss work stinks, if you are satisfying clients then you should charge handsomely.

I'm with Fred, I'd give you all the piss calls. Most don't want to do what is required to correct the situation or can't afford to. They want/hope a spritz of some fufu juice can perform miracles.

 

[Old Coastie]

You know what fufu means in Samoan?

 

[Willy P]

You know what fufu means in Samoan?

Yes. Canada's national animal - the beaver.

 

[Desk Jockey]

 

[Old Coastie]

Close.

 

[Willy P]

Close.

Well the beaver fufu's me. I'm a proud Canadian.

That would be a gallon per job???
