Not harsh, not scarey, realistic, so you would be happy with someone like this working your area obviously for beer money only and not taking it seriously, when you could be working those same customers and improving your business :)

This is exactly the competition I want 'in my area'!

I think you need a reality check.Sounds like you are looking down your nose at him, what has it got to do with you that he is happy working 2 days a week? In his 2 days he may very well give his customers a good reliable service.

A good friend of mine works 2 days a week. He lives in the middle of Kent and his run is in South West London. He has been in the game 40+ years and doesn't employ. Now will somebody tell me that he isn't providing a good, reliable service.

Being diplomatic is being able to tell someone to go to hell in such a way that they look forward to the trip.

Speak as I find. If you were to read his words, he obviously isn't happy as it is would do his head in to do more than 2 days, as for looking down my nose, no I don't do that to anyone, nobody is superior to anyone else in this world.  I am entitled to an opinion though and if people don't like it that's fine........ that's what opinions are for. If he was working 2 days a week himself on the glass and then employing on the other days to make it a full time seriously run business then fine.......but he's not, which says to me his heart isn't in it, which means that he won't get the business he wants, and so on and so on.....

after 40 years, nobody could say this wasn't a serious business could they? I bet it doesn't do your mates head in though as I suspect he wouldn't have lasted this long if it did :)

I'm sure it does, but i bet you could do it for longer than 2 days a week to make a decent living :)
Be honest after 2 years of being in the industry if you were not earning enough to pay tax and only had enough customers  for 2 days a week and it "did" your head in, would you not be thinking "it may not be for me?"

sorry but what has all the above rubbish got to do with this guy coming on
here and asking a legitimate question and being called a waster ???

the only person who is letting themselves down is yourself but hey you carry
with your rather silly behaviour...im sure you were having a bad day,we
all have them,most would of climbed down off there high horse by now
and admitted they were wrong for insulting another person for no good reason.

must be beyond you

bye! :)

Wow! Helen ... stop digging old girl! You're bigger than this.

Calling Hank jr. a waster is completely uncalled for.
It's a game of three halves!
