Yep me too. He will wake up to it eventually but in the meantime you make use of him. All is fair in business. Then again with a rate like that he probably has more than enough work anyway.

what made me grumpy today = picking dog crapers out of my mouth = whippering mouth open bang blahhhhhhhh if it aint bad enough trying to digest carrots from my own dinner the night before , picking them out - and off your face from a super fresh = still felt warm dog mine ...
Things that make me Grumpy....... the fact that Geoff hasn't done a things that make me happy thread yet, it can't be all dome and gloom can it?
While i'm here things that make me grumpy.......pharking councils and there habit lately of planting trees/shrubs in nature strips then putting two foot of mulch around the tree but not bothering to put the plastic border around it so all the mulch gets kicked around the lawn and guess who has to whippy and mow around it. Oh & s you tossers the stuff goes flying and what doesn't end up sticking out of my head goes flying towards cars and people walking by in a word genius.
Cheers.

I know what you mean Scoob and then to top things off they change roads that get a lot of traffic by putting in these stupid stretched out C type chicanes with a street sign 2 foot in from the kerb right were all the dickheads try to cut across while they are doing 20k over the speed limit. Great wipping near this edge as it seems to be a great game for the hoons to see how close they can get to you.
Things that make me grumpy.
Just getting ready to go out with the Mrs and this guy rings me up, he is one of those customers who gets me to slash his vacant block 2 or 3 times a year to avoid getting a council fine. He starts off by saying
"Are you still mowing lawns?" .... well yes I am no thanks to you ! He asks me If I can do it tomorrow,
"Sorry I have a full day booked in tomorrow."
"Do you think you could squeeze mine in ? "
"No, sorry I can't, I have a full day"
Then I ask him "How long is the grass ? "
"About knee high"
I'm thinking, so that means a Giraffes knee not a humans knee.
"When can you do it then ?" He asks very abruptly
At this point I want to say "Not at all" and hang up, but I tell him it won't be until late next week. He then says that he has 2 weeks until the council fine him. I just tell him that I'm busy and I can't guarantee that I can do it before then, so he tells me that he might ring around somewhere else.
What made me grumpy more than anything else is that I didn't tell him to F_ _ K off and don't expect me to drop everything to do your ****ty job when I have regular customers and contract work to do first.
Everybody is entitled to MY opinion
Grumpy is an understatement.
I managed to wipe 22 months of receipts and payments from my computer somehow tonight. While I was backing it all up with a new usb.
Can you do a system restore to a previous date Cranbourne?

Any "GOOD" IT technician should have no dramas getting the data back. By good, I am not referring to the numbnuts that work for major computer & electronic retailers - if you know someone who works for a company that has their own in-house IT staff, offers of beer & pizza will often solve a lot of your woes!

-I hate washing on the line on the day that the customer has requested we come. It is the same frikkin time & same frikkin day every 2 weeks for the past 7 years and they still don't have the courtesy to wait till we've been and it's not like they're not home at the time either.
-I hate that 5:30pm phone call on a Friday
-I hate the PITA job that we've turned up to for the 2nd time in 2 weeks, on Christmas Eve, that has "forgotten to get money out of the ATM" for the 2nd time, who had the audacity to ask if we'd come back tomorrow, that tomorrow was Christmas Day. Bet you can guess what the reply was
I'll tell you what I hate, being stoked about getting a bargin on a roll of whippy cord, then being even happier when i find out the seller lives just around the corner from my dad who just happened to be flying up to see me the next day so i saved even more by not paying for postage, only to have the airport not allow him to take it on the plane so instead of just chucking it in the bin Jet"F*#king ripoff"Star charged him 80 bucks to put it in the hold! So instead of getting it for a quarter of the price its now cost me double! GGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
Splashing out a couple of weeks ago on a Super Z predominantly for 1 big contract I have been doing for a couple of years (caravan park) and being told today I am no longer required as new Manager is coming in and handling the mowing himself. Pretty pissed off at the moment.
