Most retarded people work for companies that assemble electronic parts for clocks, radios, and other products, so let's not make carpet cleaners electronic engineers or electricians . Mixing 1 part liquid carpet cleaning soap to 3 parts water is not chemistry. Cutting a copper pipe, tightening a clamp on a hose, or adjusting your pressure or heat does not make you a plumber. Nylon is the most widely used carpet fibre in all carpets , therefore knowledge is limited to a small percentage of the carpet itself. I would hope if retarded people can assemble a clock a grade 8 education can memorize carpet fibres. Unless you take your engine apart from a to z and rebuild it, you are no mechanic and if you can..............get out of the carpet business and rebuild engines. I had a grade 3 education carpet cleaner working for me, he was 45 years old and spoke well to the customers and was very polite and was a likable person, They also train parrots to talk too, Not a Great Accomplisment. As far as marketing is concerned, making a flyer filled with mumbo-jumbo, sticking it into a mail box does not make you a desired or qualified person to head up the marketing department of General Motors. If any of you are offended by my remarks, it is because that truth hurts. This is a better way to make money instead of flipping hamburgers, mind you some of you might do that in the off season. I stand by my statements, let's just not make this a glorified, rocket science, certified, degreed, professional profession. You clean carpets boys & girls, you do not have the worlds problems at your fingertips, & you do not hold the key in your pocket to nuclear distruction. Nightrider Edited by nightrider |

Steamer.........I got into carpet cleaning back in 1985, and since then I never...........ever...........saw...........or heard...........of any "TRADE SECRETS" of carpet cleaning. This is childs play, and whoever complicates it, it's because they really don't understand it. Let's face it boys & girls...........this is a dumb - dumb business, like window washing, wall washing, brick cleaning, wallpaper removal, painting, deck cleaning etc etc. The money is good and someone has to do it, and those someones just happen to have little or no education, otherwise you would all be doctors, lawers, dentists or chemists making all those real " Trade Secrets " for Coke, Pepsi, McDonalds and the like. Lets get real here, " Carpet Dirty > Spray water & soap.........oooooops .......... Carpet Clean again, customers says........" How'd you do that " Steamer says.........Can't tell you ........It's a Trade Secret "ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ah Nightrider Edited by nightrider |

With this forum, you don't have to take classes or practice on someones carpet... you ask a questions and it'll be answered...most times giving many different solutions...good solutions... is that really fair to the people that worked to get that solution??? I can't and won't tell every little steamer secret...I know we'll never hear every little doug secret...cmaster has his secrets...kenny has his.. thats what makes the business....Pepsi doesn't share their ingredients with coke... they are in the same business... Mcdonalds hasn't shown Burger King how to make a big mac.. and I won't show you how I clean carpet...so there |

I know what you mean Jack. I keep coming back here for my fair share of abuse too. Why, I can't figure out, but some strange force keeps drawing me back.

These boards mean absolutely nothing,the comments posted should not reflect on us as individual mischievous delinquents or have a bonefire ready to burn us at the stakes for character assassination or vulgar sexual innuendos toward our piers. These actions are all in fun and should be dealt with on a mature foundation and taken with a grain of salt, sprinkled with lots of humor, and drank with a dose of sweet & sour reality *ocktail. I have dished out some of my worst insults and have received the same thrown back in my face 2 fold, by the likes of Steamer, Doug, D.L.T, Adwa,& General Lee. Other members prefer just to tolerate me as an idiot. Whatever the case is, should we ever all meet in the same room one day together, there will be an atmosphere of friendship in the room that science would not be able to explain. We have something that bonds us all together here, and that's why we keep comming back for our fair share of abuse. Nightrider |

Everyone has their own perception of the boards. If they are offended by what is said here, they don't have to hang around. I personally like all the boards, even though there are some "different" people on them. |

I just know I stand by what I said John.........I will make no apologies for the way I conduct myself on this board.....unless it is justified by one of the board memebers...........or for anyone else. I am anticipating a phone call tommorow.......I just hope it's me that answers the phone.

Hey, I agree, if they're being JERKS then they're being JERKS. I don't have anything to do with their posting. I don't come here to whine or tear someone apart, and I don't post what I read here over on the blue board, EVER. IF Misty REALLY is a customer that stumbled on this board, you have to admit, she may have been honestly disappointed. She would be on the blue board at times also. We recognize that problem on our board, and John has been trying to get things cleaned up. Honest negative opinions and product reviews are allowed, and should be. (I think she was referring most to the sexual inuendos, swearing and name calling.) Sometimes when the shoe fits, ya admit it, not sling the shoe at the person who brought it to your attention. Mr Steamer, I'm sorry to cause such a rise from you. I really think newbies come to the boards looking to learn - I don't think they necessarily are trying to lazily steal knowledge - I don't know why you are so bitter and suspicious toward them. Give 'em the benefit of a doubt until they show themselves to be jerks. Don't blow a fuse, dude! I like this board, or wouldn't check it so often - it's just gotten off track lately, just like ours had (hopefully it's getting better). And Kenny... that would be "That's telling HER Steamer". Pay attention. You don't have to agree with me, but don't beat me for telling the truth, either. Barb |
