Mr. Steamer:   I have a lot of competion including Sears and many more companies  from as far away as Kitchner all trying to work here at city prices.  Here you have to spend more than 20 minutes at a house to make a couple of hundred dollars and run especially when it was suppose to be 2 rooms for $59.00.  Just my opinionGuitar

Mr. Steamer I have houses here where I am out over 200 ft maybe down a hill over a bank threw the bush.  Not a nice paved drive.  But a cottage on the side of a hill or a farm house with no drive.   If the whole job was worth $75.00 are you going to take 1/2 and hour to set up for $10.00?  I don't think so. How many gravel roads do you travel in a day? Just my opinionGuitar

I have had one of those days only with a customer.

Once in a while someone will come in and ask a lot of questions about certain stains they have and what to use to get them out.

After about 45min of explaining what is best to use they buy the opposite. They walk out the door and I just shake my head and say what was that all about.

I have it figured out that they come in with a product on their mind weather it works or not there buying it. They just want to hear what we have to say and I guess that proves I'm not a good sales person if I couldn't change their minds.

Or it could be that they are real stupid.  Either way it doesn't wreck my day.
