All installers are extra good at something. What is your best skill ? Stitching bullnose's maybe? Cutting joins? what are you really good at compared to others? Me- im good at speaking crap and making people think i know what im doing!
I would say welding mitres on cap&cove and talking customers into having flooring. When I measure a job I give lots of advice in design colour etc and talk them out of knight tile.
mine is inspector gadget , all my mates take the pi$$ about all the gear i have. I say all the gear no idea.
Mine is outrageous flirting and flattery :lol: My wife says when the phone rings I turn into another person when I speak to customers. I'm not aware of it but if it works for me I won't question it. Another one is if a job is a fair distance from home I'll put in silly hours to get it done quicker and save a journey. Finishing at 10pm is quite common but I can't do it too often these days.
lol @ Sandy My gf says the same thing about me too I dont see it at all, im just being nice & curteous to the clients lol Im a straightfwd talker and prob too honest tbh, no bull**it lol :mrgreen: Also take my time over explain everything so the customer understands exactly what they need and what they are getting Find the customers appreciate it on a whole. As for signature skill...prob talking as much crap as everyone else haha :lol:
Put it this way Ted it's been a long time since I've performed twice in one night .............three times , four times but never twice :twisted:
should have seen this woman me and a guy from work had to work to last week, she was dark skinned, braided hair beauty from south africa, and was an underwear model, talked about sex and all sorts both days we were there! we could hardly concentrate on our work, now i previously said she modelled underwear, well did she not give us a "wee" show, us 2 perched on the kitchen table sippn on coffee whilst she strutted her stuff, this jobs can have its up and downs some days, but DAMN this was a good day haha on my signature skill, its probably flirtn with every customers yes, haha, or laminate, pretty confident with all carpets, although i've never done any border carpets or stitched a bullnose, never been shown nothing like that, quite confident with kardean, thats the only LVT i've used at work
