Anyone else get this? Just changed a bathroom light and the customer spent the whole time virtually stood on the bottom rung of the step ladder staring at what I was doing. Not conducive to a good morning's work!

Did a job along time ago for a Deaf and Dumb couple, the job was requested by the Husbands Father.Anyone else get this? Just changed a bathroom light and the customer spent the whole time virtually stood on the bottom rung of the step ladder staring at what I was doing. Not conducive to a good morning's work!
time for a good farttread on him, or drop a large screwdriver on his hed. he'll soon move.
yup definately this lolA few reasons, insecurity, curiosity, you may look dodgy, seeing what exactly they are paying for......
Did you "accidentally on purpose fall off the ladder"?It's not uncommon for people to leave you alone with a strategically place pile of cash somewhere....clearly a trap. It is extremely off putting though when someone stands right on top of what you are doing, they always seem to appear just when it's going wrong and you are struggling. On the plus side though in the summer I was at a real sorts house up a pair of steps and she insisted on standing right below chatting in a pretty loose fitting dressing gown, the view was a major distraction.
Reminds me of one female customer who had almost see through white leggings on with bright red thong underneath.A few years back I had an old fella stand watching me work in his bungalow when he says "I've noticed you have small feet" wtf?
A little while later he says "Can I show you this" double wtf He proceeds to show me the restraining straps he had fitted to the head and foot of his bed I tightened up and finished rather quickly after telling I was married with kids.
Had some interesting times working in peoples homes but that, well that was simply weird
im definitely doing that in future! Genius!Many years ago was talking to some other self employeds re just being left in people's houses and the little piles of cash thing, one bloke used to keep change in his van so he could add to each pile just incase the customer was leaving 'traps'!
The proof reading and corrections would take a day and an age though........Some good stories there. I think if some of you got together you could write a very amusing book.
Obviously if an attractive lady shows an unusual level of interest in anything I'm doing that's fine. I assume she fancies me, and rightly so!!
Bad taste considering current headlines on the news.Don't work in Brixton if you are worried about the customer standing 6" behind you.........
Why is that?Bad taste considering current headlines on the news.
Is that where you got your nickname Ken?Space invaders! I find farting silently and then looking at them in disgust gets rid of em!

Cause he may have an 18" schlong...........Well, you tell me why in Brixton you should be worried about a customer standing 6 inches behind you?
Now you can answer as I answered your question.Well, you tell me why in Brixton you should be worried about a customer standing 6 inches behind you?

Not sure what the bad headlines are though?Seems simple to me.
You explain your comment in post #36

Everyone is a winner...
Not sure what the bad headlines are though?
Seems unlikely. Unless you have conducted a study to confirm otherwise.Cause he may have an 18" schlong...........
I went to a fancy dress party once in Brixton, never seen so many people dressed up as a petrol pump with the "hose" slung over their shoulders..........Seems unlikely. Unless you have conducted a study to confirm otherwise.
