Isnt it great when you get looked after? My current job makes all the tea you could drink, just ask Whitebeam!

I have had a couple like that, their attitude was we make you egg and bacon sarnie for elevensies and something for lunch then you dont go off for ages at lunch and our job gets done faster.

On the other side of the coin i hate it when you get customers who wont even put the kettle on. I normaly ask if theres a power cut cos i cant hear the kettle. Or tell them to fill it up before i turn the water off!

I rang my sister up last week, she said to me "I cant stop Im cooking the lunch for the plasterers!" She reckons that if she cooks them breakfast, serves them coffee and tea at 10.30 and then does them lunch they will do a better job.

Last year we did a job at a hotel in Liverpool Street, and had to work weekends, the manager wheeled in the biggest trolley of hot food in at 10.00! Funnily enough the following weekend, the boys were fighting to work there.

A little kindness goes a long way.

Only got breakfast cooked for me once, when I helped tile the ‘Fire & Stone’ restaurant in Westfield. It’s a pizzeria but the pizza oven had not yet been turned on. We got a lovely full English buffet. It was a really nice gesture from the owner. Worst time ever was when a customer kept baking lovely cakes & pies for her family. I could smell the lovely smells all day, but I never got offered a crumb.
