Bad Window Cleaners
« on: March 02, 2006, 06:54:24 pm »
We were aproched by someone asking if we cleaned his area.

We didn't, but got chatting. His current WCer was doing a bad job.

Curious we asked who it was, he said he didn't know his name, but had a red van and a pole thingie.

We asked what the problem was. It seamed that the windows were no cleaner after than before.

His wife had to go round after to clean up after him. We wondered if this was because they didn't know that the windows were left to dry, rather than dried like the trad method.

We assured the guy that WFP's do work and that it was more than likely user error.

"He didn't do a good job before he got his pole"

Moral: A bad window cleaner will always be a bad window cleaner, if you can't see the mess you leave with your nose against the glass, you will not see the mess you leave 18' away!

Agree! I switched 2 this a couple of weeks ago and find that the bad Win cleaners r not rinsing enough and r rushing way 2 much...   if you do it properly you r still quicker than using ladders but leave clean glass and a happy customer..  found it difficult converting some customers 2day tho but was worth the hard work... they will be a doddle next month.  :)
I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather..... not screaming in terror like his passengers!!!!
