Specialist Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 well the emphasis within your wordsDoes it say Oxfam on some of your vans? No profit = No Pro to fit to say in that way seems to present (an is what i thought you meant) in your view an act of compassion down rates any 'fit' to not being professional, which is not a fair comment. i'll bet you, as me as the same for many members have been on calls to systems installed by others, where it is blatantly obvious an unfair advantage has been taken of the clients ignorance. where its's companies i'm not so given to be lenient as they often look at the lowest quote without checking the quality or doing any researching. vulnerable people on the other hand don't have so much awareness, and work on trusting the 'pro' who is recommended, by her own son in this case. i work 95% from recommendations, other times it's offering services when passing a shop or house having refurbishments done, thats why it bites at me so bad when someone like this causes a bad name for small traders. if you accept the ripple effect, a bad job done anywhere is a bad advert for everyone in this trade, it also lowers the trust we should enjoy, so showing some humility to help redress the balance imo is payment in kind. if i'm wrong and there is actually a heaven, might just be handy to have a few credits to hand when approaching pete and the pearl's regs alan You hit the nail on the head again, everyone who styles theirselves ( Alarm Engineer ) and does a Crappy job or rips someone off is giving all of us a bad name. For the most part the trade is populated by Good & Honest engineers who do not desrve the bad press we often get. Regs: Andy. B) Customers Love us, Intruders Hate us.
