You haven't got experience of working for every Indian customer though, have you? You're potentially prejudging a customer based on experiences of other customers of the same 'demographic'.
It's prejudice.

My experience, is lots of Indian customers are far more fussy than the average English, American, Greek, French etc etc etc etc etc etc etc.

How that’s perceived as racist proves to me people are petrified of being ‘racist’.

It’s not racist, it’s a culture difference.

This nation has become so unbelievably woke, it’s embarrassing.


To be racist would be to blame the fussiness on their skin colour.

No one has suggested that.

So they are just the Indian customers then? Not Pakistanis or Bangladeshi? Or is it just people with brown skin?? Iv got many Hindu & Sikh  customers and they are brilliant, no dog poope , clean gardens , pay on time and are very friendly.

What is the average English person?
And how do we know if a prospective customer is Indian or not?

I had a red indian that used to work for me . Had to let him go cos he was always ped up . Shame really cos he wasn’t scared of heights and could balance on  narrow roofs clinging on to cills .

You know it’s an urban myth that American Indians were not afraid of heights, it was actually their culture  of not showing fear that was mistaken for not fearing height 

. It wasn’t a myth . They are in the history books for outnumbering the white people , % wise . for putting up the skyscrapers all across America . Then after a hard days balancing act , they enjoyed a bit of fire water.

No because ive already said i dont believe they are ALL the same. Of course they are not all the same its just that in my experience the ones i have worked for have all been what i determine a pita. Therefore id rather not keep sticking my hand in the bees nest looking for the one time it doesnt sting me, i dont need to i have plenty of other work that i want to do.

[Don Kee]

Just out of interest, how are do we know these “types” are Indian?

[Stoots]

Or maybe it's a culture of having lived among them for most of your life and knowing what they are like.
And I'm not talking about Indians here but a more specific group of which a lot of Indians aren't part of.
So for me it's a religious thing......and there's plenty of people round here who just won't work for them due to bad experiences in the past.......bad experience for a window cleaner is a loss of £10 or £20........bad experience for, say, a builder can run to thousands as was the case for my brother..........and others had tried and failed before with him.

Exactly that.

Bet most would sing a different tune if they lived and worked in such cultural delights such as dewsbury and bradford.  and had actual experiences. 

[Steven Biggs]

That’s me .😁

The best thing to do with Dewsbury and batley , is drop em both in the middle of  bradford . Build a 50 foot high wall around it . Then fill it up with tigers and crocodiles .

That's why I appreciated your bike ride to Amsterdam so much.
Well done, Matty lad.

Hive plenty of other work to do, too. You don't half do some moaning about the other work you want to do though .

@G Griffin, are you the same geezer who's always arguing with the ex squaddie on another section of the forum and always loses the argument?

Not getting many bites here are you!

[JandS]

I do a fair bit in Batley and some in Dewsbury.....the rest in Cleckheaton, Morley, Mirfield and Ossett......you can tell the difference.

No, that's a culturally different G Griffin, Bungle. She never wins an argument but I always do. The ex squaddie is taking a break, btw.
Thanks for the bite, Bungle 👍.
