Hi chaps. I completed a drive and the neighbour came out and asked me to do his. I turned up to do his job yesterday and he said, you don't mind if I watch do you. I said no that's fine, well within fifteen minutes he's brought out a deckchair and won't stop looking. He has seen the quality of my work and I know it's up to him but it's very off putting. How would you deal with it as I got about a week of it. He's about 70 and he even put his rigger boots on. 😀

Ha, the job I'm on is quite bad sort of.
He's ok to hold the tape and a few things but it's like having an extra shadow.

I hate it! Had it twice, one bloke was so boring telling me about his bbq championships he goes to, and got arsey when the skip wasnt collected at the end of the day.
The worst is when you sit in the van for lunch, then they come out, tap on the glass and start boring you with their illness and hospital appointments!!!

Turn the radio up loud and sing away. Don't give them talk time, bore them back with your tales of woe, soon get pissed off with you and stay ondoors :;): :)
