I laugh when people have already had 4-12 quotes and request another from me.
Told a sizable restaurant to go jump :P
Have you tried it with the side discharge chute?
The ultimate mower would consist of:
JD Self Propelled System
JD Side Discharge
Pro-Scape Cut Quality
Pro-Scape Blade System
The Old Retro Victa cut quality
A big donk (Briggs/Kohler/Kawa/Honda) I personally think we need a 220-250cc engine.
A Better catcher system that reduces bending down
Just my 2 cents
Just read an add on dumbtree, Wanted someone to mow my lawn its like a jungle, will pay $10 on the spot, may become a regular if you do a good job.
We've got 18 year-olds with an old ute, old mower, and old whipper snipper around here doing lawns for $20 and $30 for "pokies money" so I'm not surprised.
A beer or two sounds good..... But only when it's hot! What about a beer every time .

I saw a contractor today , and no joke he was doing these overgrown edges with a handsaw. Yes one that you cut wood with, on his hands and knees
A month back a new tenant moved into a renatl that I had being doing, so I knocked at the door and asked if they wanted me to continue, They said sure they didnt have a mower.
I say ok price is $60.00, oh they say the Estate agent said that you only charge the previous tenant $45.00. I actually charged them $55.00 but had put my price up.
I said in that case pay the $60.00 and send the bill to the estate agent (said this tongue in cheek).
Get a call yesterday from the agent saying I had no right to charge more than he had quoted. I just cracked up laughing and hung up. A couple of hours later I rang back and spoke to hs manager and let him know what his guy had done, dont think he will be getting a xmas card this year.
Estate agents, what a joke some of them are ay and how important they think they are.
I will not work for them since 1.5yrs ago when I constantly had to send reminders on reminders. They put us no higher than worms in the soil, maybe because we generally drive white vehicles and they have black ones.

At the moment I have positive business dealings with the real estate companys. Always pay and plenty of work coming through. But I live in a area that everyone knows everyone. However whilst running a round in Adelaide real estates were a pain but strata managers were ok to deal with.
