Without a doubt Bt I form the customers - play the medical card for sympathy etc..

Never argue with an idiot, they will only bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience

Inform them is best practice. That way they know they have not been dumped or you have packed it in.

I would defo text certain customers that I would be late getting round due to surgery esp if your usually on time.try and text the blabbermouths who will then tell your other customers what's going on(if its compact estate work).

Good luck with your recovery
price higher/work harder!

Might risk leaving a lot of it just text the 7 weekers.....I'm never totally on time anyway....looks like a dry, cold but sunny week as well next week.

If you've got about 50 customers text them. If you've got 400+ I wouldn't bother. Too much arsing about.
We look at them, they look through them.
