It SH*TS me to see guys that put in no investment blatantly bullsh*tting the customer and performing poor quality work. I have spoken to some BOB'S over the years and they don't even know what type of grass they're looking after. One guy even sprayed 300m2 of lawn with roundup to get rid of some clover. Killed the lawn. There's some fools out there, got a mower whippersnipper Duh, I'll mow lawns for money.
