Ask the moderators......bit of the old cancel culture probably.
Impossible done straight away, miracles can take a little longer.

There was racist posts in the thread - as I said yesterday - you get customers like this in all sexes - creeds - colour - culture

There was no need to single out a specific race of people

Because if you have an opinion on a certain group of people it must be racist, whatever racist means.

I do wish when threads are removed they would at least be locked, archived and not deleted as you get a feeling you missed the fun but you can never know what it was  ;D

Probably best to not make any assumptions on any group of people…other than straight white males of course, then anything goes 👍

And there is the problem mate - you say everybody of a certain race is this or that - that is the definition of racism

You need to look at peopleS individuals as of course we all are - some we get along with others we don’t and that nothing to do with what they look like

How do we know Indians are Indians? They might not be 'another nationality'. They might just look Indian to some people. They might look like an awkward customer because of how they look, eh?

I don't that is true for one minute. It's the penny pinching mentality of a certain race that people find are a PITA.

Give over - you prejudge people - I’ve no end of Anglo Saxon tight wads but I don’t come on here saying this white bloke tried to screw me down a fiver

A customer is a customer everyone’s money is the same to me and everybody gets the same service

Comments like “ I don’t clean them “ referring to the title is clearly predigest

I dont believe for a second every person of any race or group or whatever is a certain way.

But heres the thing, its a generalisation. If you have worked for say 10 muslims or 10 indians or 10 single white mothers on a council estate or whatever way you want to group people.....and every one off them experiences is a bad one then you are going to tar them all with the same brush and avoid that group of people.

I dont believe thats racist, nor do i believe they are "all" the same, just that a lot of them are and so rather than risk it why not just avoid them, afterall we can all pick and choose who we work for to a certain extent. I dont see it as any different to not wanting to clean a house with poor parking for example.

Usually referred to as a messer, you'll see plenty of posts about messers. Most window cleaners pick and choose who they work for as it leads to a less stressful life. You employ so you don't have to deal with the face to face stuff. 👍

That’s correct a messer

A messer is a messer no need for Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi etc.. to be the all important reference

And I meet all the customers - how do you we price them…

I didn’t see the racist post.

Nothing I said I was racist, nor would it be.

It’s a culture thing, like I mentioned.

I do hate this ridiculous ‘woke’ world we now live in. It’s pathetic.

If there was a particular racist reply, it should have been deleted, whilst the rest of the thread remained.

A culture thing is the correct word. Single mom chavs culture is to sit outside their front door all day in their pyjamas lazing about smoking and claiming benefits. Now they're going to be ideal customers aren't they! Some people like to get upset on other people's behalf.
