I had a customer call me last night. He said that his cousin just bought a new house, and now that he's retired, he's been doing some work for the cousin fixing up the place. So his question to me is, what should he charge his cousin for painting 2 bedrooms and a hallway? I almost jumped through the phone and choked him. :furious::furious::furious::censored: :wallbash::censored::censored:

A long time ago, when I was just starting, I had a customer who wanted to supply the paint. He then asked if he could use my account to get my discount. I allowed him, assuming he would pay cash. He actually charged it to my account. Then he called me and said it wouldn't fit in his car and wanted me to pick it up. Like an idiot I agreed. So much for him supplying the paint.
