I really don't, you'd think I would, but they probably go over my head I don't really concern myself with what most customers say or think 😂🤣😄 I have my commercial customers and they're awesome #TradesTalk

A3: I've never found red flag customers, I've had some money not paid but rare and never thematic. I have one rule, accept all jobs, work out how to do them after and work out how to get paid after that 😂 #TradesTalk
Q3 Have you got better at sussing out new customers over the years (to see if there are any red flags 🚩)? #TradesTalk

Fully support this
The PSA test is simple & the digital exam, not that digital, the other digit (al) is nothing like you might worry about.
Get booked in.
Get checked.
Repeat at regular intervals (not too often though as the GP may put restraining orders out)

I can’t bake.
I supported local businesses & bought one instead. #TradesTalk

A2 Yes, the customer kept changing their mind mid project for what they wanted. By the time I had fitted, removed and then refitted the same stud wall about 6 times I knew that was it and I had to part ways with the client.

A1 Fitted units in a lounge, err how can I word this and not sound like and an arse.
Well the customer wanted all solid oak units but clearly only had an ikea budget 😆
