was at work today with my mate. one of his mates, a window fitter rung him and said iv got a number of a guy im pricing windows for, he wants he house plastering inside and mono out. so my mate gives him a call and gives him the rates for each aspect. the customer, who was from an ethnic background which has a reputation of being somewhat stingy, laughed and told him his prices were way off. bearing in mind we get these prices day in day out, we know that not to be the case.
so he asked him what rates has he been quoted. he said a local gang, english, have quoted him £2.20 on the skimming, £4 on the float and set, and a whopping £5 for the mono, labour only. my mates then laughed and said he really wished him all the best on the work, especially the mono. the guy then proceeded to go into a big rant about how the prices were more than fair, it was cash, its a cash job, did he mention it was cash!! then that there was a fair few meters which meant it should be for some reason cheaper. and as for the mono all you have to do is just chuck it on, then the next day scrape a pad over it and its flat. so my mate then politely hung up.
i look forward to driving by in a few weeks time :RpS_laugh:
