hello from watchman. have'nt been on in several months. computer wouldn't allow me to log on site. something about cookies being disabled. but i tried again to-nite and bingo. i think the site makeover must have changed something. on the subject on dumping waste water. it's completly legal in my city to dump waste
water on your own property on the ground as long as it is absorbed in the ground and doesn't enter the sewer system. for now but things may change, the politicians are always looking for a enviro cause to hook on to. back again. ------------- JUST WATCHING AND LEARNING |

The point was about taking pictures not the actual dumping.
The f*gs on ICS went off on a guy for taking pics of his competition. They should have gave him a medal but instead told him he was a stalker!

medal for being a snitch...cmon. The reason why they feel hurt in the first place is that they or we all do it at some time or another.... some times you just have to dump in the street. Mike threw a stone and we all live in glass houses.
most of these guys will talk about a sani dump...trust me I haven't seen a sani dump here in Toronto....Oh I go to the car wash....yeah yeah let the owner or care taker of that car wash catch you dumping there, trust me he won't be too happy.... some will say I dump it in my grass.....imagine the smell!!!
Carpet cleaners a bunch of lying f-er's most of us dump in the street stop lying!
Your customers couldn't afford to clean if they had to pay waste removal charges on top of the room rate.
I hate that HOLY'er than thou bullsh*t on the forums
I have dumped in the street...and i'm 100% sure you have too at sometime or another...where should I pose for my picture

Come dump all your waste water here in Quebec............................we don't care..................we're a dis-STINK society..........and we deserve all the waste the other provinces can dish out .
So collect all your dog poop in plastic bags , human sh1t in shoe boxes and all the piss you can muster up in plastic jugs and throw it over the imaginary border ..............who knows all that crap & piss just might make our apples grow bigger so that the Quebec farmers get a better price when we sell them to the rest of Canada

this whole thing is not about dumping it is about that RB moron Mike who got pi**ed he didn't get his Red Board prices to clean the place. Like I said ovre there if you cannot compete with the competition regarding price and quality call the law and let them put them out of biz for ya??????????? ------------- Just My opinion |

He'll never get the job now.... who cares about what the other guy charges, the bullsh*t on the red board when it comes to prices. 34,000 sq ft for around $2000 isn't that bad for commercial 6 cents per sq ft... Some even work for less.
Mike just over priced thats all LOL

some you can get .20 per sq ft...doctors offices...dentist, CHURCHES most small businesses will pay...I get that np....mostly referrals from the residential customers. Bidding on a big job like a Hotel... 0.05 per sq ft is the norm aroiund here... the guys that get the jobs most times bid lower ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

This is the way I price it
commercial job minimum is $125... I don`t care if it`s a mat at the front door
0.25 per sq foot under 1000 sq ft
0.20 1000 to 2500
0.15 2500 to 4000
0.10 4000 to 10000
0.05 anything over 10000
I would of been less than Mikes low ballers ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

so you p.o the whole cost...then you let them pay in 3 or 4 installments along with the cleanings. So at least you have a P.O. if they decide to cancel ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |
