Whilst in the middle of a drive clean I took a 5 min break and wanderd over to an old boy with one of those electric weed rotory brushes. Anyway we get chatting on his new toy as you do. 5 mins later into the conversation I'm booking his drive clean in after I finished across the road. I don't think he was that impressed with his new toy after all.
To top it off I was having another 5 min break and struck up a conversation with a lady who lives next door to the previous drive I cleaned whilst she was tending her plant pots at the front garden. Within 10 mins that drive was also booked in for next week.
The other old boy next to the second one I was cleaning was a contreate drive and looked like it had never been cleaned at all. When he came back from poping out in his car I asked if he wanted his drive cleaned as well. After giving him a price his reply was "I would rather spend it on beer." Now that mad me laugh
Still 2 new jobs out of 3 is not bad going just by going out of my way talking to people whilst taking breaks.
Do you guys do the same?
