Default You just cant get the workers these days

Was having a word with a self employed DG fitter yesterday about fitting a
large DG unit in a friend of mines house front elevation.
The friend had a telephone coversation with him to arrange a quote and see
what was what on the job.

The friend has ust phoned up and told me he hadn't called at the arranged
time today Saturday.

Sheeesh! is it no wonder the DG fitters get slagged off,he either wasn't
bothered or buisness must be good to pick&choose were and when the mood took
him.

I offered to install the DG unit but would mean no certificate to pass on
should he sell the property.

Years ago workers were reliable and had the courtesy to let you know wether
they were not able to do the job or won't be able to turn up as arranged.

So much for mobile phones and respect.
