Christmas Tip
« on: November 28, 2004, 10:39:46 am »
Hey! Got my first Xmas tip of the year yesterday!  ;D

A nice bottle of red chillian wine from a female customer,with a note attached saying "thanks for the hard work through the year"

The other half gave me a funny look when i  it showed her.!
 ::)
Any one else got a tip yet?

You might think me a bit shallow  ;) but I may have stumbled upon a way to increase your tips.
I was out collecting last night and one of my customers gave me a nice bottle of red wine as a christmas tip, it was a fair walk back to the van and I only had 5 more customers in that street so I held onto the wine till I was done collecting.
3 of the 5 saw the wine, made some comment  and promptly gave me a nice tip as well.
Now I am not suggesting anything here but.........  ;)

and tip of the day for them will be delivered on monday morning.

we are facing our busiest two weeks, and rest assured i expect two weeks of long hours and hard work..  and then party after that. the week commencing 20th december should be easy.

so all xmas shopping will de done then.

my old grand dad (god rest his soul) used to drive a bus on day trips for people, he allways said, put a empty box with tips on it as they got out, and you got NOTHING, put a box with loads of coins in, and YOU Got LOADS

it works

Not true.
I got £1 off a shop today and I have a cute florist who always gives me a bunch of roses.
Will I spoil the illusion if I asked her for cash do you think?

i have one customer who gives me a tip everyy month i go.Inside and out £80.00 she always gives £100.00 so the extra £30.00 per month makes up for all that dont tip at xmas.

The only tip I can give don’t call round for your money if you do our windows the wife is really peeved off, a chit has been left window cleaning done? I got the full blast when I got home have to say no and it hasn’t been raining nor is there any building work being carried out locally!
