I had a call today, which i assume was customer street, i didnt stay on the phone long enough to find out but it went along these lines;

Me: Hello
Them: Hi (mumbled something) sorry let me start again, is that the kitchen fitter in wakefield.
Me: Erm, No mate, im a til...(interupts)
Them: If I told you i could get more kitchen fitting work would you be interested.
Me: Erm, no mate not really i dont fit...(interupted again)
Them: We understand that work is short at the moment because of the credit crunch.

My phone lost signal at this point, and the call got cut off, which was a shame really because knowing what was coming my parting shot was going to be along the lines of "Would you pay someone to get you work, when a) your s**t and b) you think im a bl**dy kitchen fitter!!, what work will you be guarenteing (spelling) me exactly tv aeriel repairs. Idiots
