Being called away from your family on xmas day to provide an emergency service to someone in a desperate situation ( and by desperate i mean cant wait till tomorrow ) does not guarantee a tip but should def have warranted a serious amount of gratitude and thanks. If i was in your situation im sure not getting a tip would not have bothered me in the slightest but the lack of manners and gratitude would have pissed me off hugely
I agree with all you have said in this thread Thrush and you are quite right to have a rant about the level of manners and common courtesy being way below par these days, guess im just old school as well eh !!!![Top](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/smile011.gif)

yea its an inconvenience having to have your window replaced. however, if it could wait until tomorrow, then why do it today?
People seem to be enphasising on the tip thing, when it seems tips arent high on thrush's moan list when compared to a thanks.
I was brought up to be polite, so always say please and thanks. Even if the person has riled me up i say thanks, perhaps rudely, but thanks!
Myself? I wasnt driving yesterday, and i'd of known what time you were coming, so i would've planned my day around it. and what does it take to fit a window? 30 mins to 1 hour? hardly a fucking life time is it!
I would've offered tea/coffee, perhaps something to eat had you arrived when food was on and you'd of left with some beers or tokens, as it would've been appreciated for you to come out on xmas day.
moral of the story?
got something to moan about? dont moan about it on PF cos you'll ALWAYS be wrong

The first bloke said he WANTED tip me but couldn't cos he had nothing on him, which I thought was fair enough, and just the thought was nice enough.
Subsequently, cos of him, I mentioned it in the next examples. If he can offer, why can't anyone else.
Cos if I had recieved a thanks, I wouldn't have mentioned them. If I am recieved a tip, I wouldn't have mentioned them not saying thanks, as a tip is a thanks isn't it?
Wish I hadn't have bothered saying anything now - as someone else said, you can never be right on PF cos there are too many pricks who think they are right

southall is open on xmas day, it's probaly the only place that is
but if it's just anothe workig day mate, then i'd suggest you don't work it next year if you can avoid working i
but i can understand what you are sayin about not gettingpaid if your not working, i only have bank holidays off and i work the other 7 days of the week, this is made up for by the fact that i can take 38 days holiday a year but thats a whole other bucket of celeary![Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
the next time people piss you off just slime at them, it's a lot more effective to be over polite and over courteous to them, it makes them look like the coonts they are
and it's not as if you can get told off for it it is

As I already said, if you bothered to read - that no matter who my customers are, what car they drive etc, I am polite and courteous to them as THEY are the customer. Thats the way I was brought up, and you;d know that if ever I came to do a job with you.
Read a few posts up if you want an explantion as to why I wrote what I did. I''ve actually changed it now as even after putting an edit in there to admit I worded it badly, people are STILL harping on about it, and I cannot be arsed to post up every couple of replies that this is about appreciation, gratitude, politeness and courtesy...
![Rolling Eyes](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)
And tell me what is "arsey" about telling the truth to a customer? I did leave my dinner half way through, I did leave my family behind to go to her during her "emergency" and I did get fucked about and made to feel unappreciated.... So how is that ME being arsey?

Cos if I had recieved a thanks, I wouldn't have mentioned them. If I am recieved a tip, I wouldn't have mentioned them not saying thanks, as a tip is a thanks isn't it?

Second - when did I say I spoke to the last women in an arsey way? I NEVER spoke to her in an arsey way. Specially not before the job like you imply. With you not being there, I beg to question how you know what tone I used in what I said.
Lastly - as I keep mentioning - I didn't HAVE to do any of it, I CHOSE to go out and help these peeps. I could sit at home all day with a beer saying no to jobs and I get paid anyway - so tell me how my going out to them to help them isn't worth a thanks?
And no, I don't want it all - I simply want a fucking thanks from someone for whom I have sweated and bled for, so that they don't have too. It's called POLITENESS

Whats difference between real life and the net? Dont make it any better to completely cunt someone off on the net than it does their face, just people do as its safer.
With an attitude like youve shown on every post of this thread, no wonder its like it is. Read your posts here, you look like a stroppy dickhead on all of them, soon as anyone disagrees with you you give them abuse and get all arsey.
And now started giving out the abuse, id fucking disagree with you even if you was in the right.
Bet every other windscreen fitter in the universe got mega tips, blowjobs, presents, allsorts

You should go there and treat each person on their individual merits, if they a cunt then treat them like cunts if they nce then return it.....
And the reason im saying grow up is that i presume this isnt the first time you have been wronged by some one in your life so why the big reaction on this one occasion.....Grow up let it pass you by and get on with the rest of your christmas......

Thrush, i don't have an issue with you at all and you're always up for a good discussion about 'real' music and the like but don't you realise when you put a post up then people can and will post on any element of it. For whatever reason, if they don't argree with that part or if they want to wind you up.
It seems to me you are just getting worse, seriously it has obviously got to you more than most and i sugest you don't bother looking in this thread again if thats how you are going to get.
We don't know how you were on the day and your attitude just like we don't know how a tuner or customer was on the day when they post up "****** whatever motorsport conned, me ripped me off and was rude" But still everyone will post up they're view.
What i will say is that if you had a choice and then why bother, i don't care how much the desire to help others is familly on that day comes first, besides its not as if you are saving their life or rescuing them, its just a window. IF IT WAS ME and i had to do it (ot choice) then it would piss me off even if just a little, this could have a bearing on my attitude on the job.
^Hence the saying don't take your problems to work, little hard with the above, for most!
Just go and enjoy your boxing day mate. Blow of some steem.

But I don't subscribe to the "eye for an eye" philosophy I'm afraid. I treat all people politely, even if they do treat me like a cunt. I might become less "friendly" with them (ie, not make conversation, jokes etc) but I still maintain a civil tongue and behave in a polite and professional manner - thats how I was brought up, and how I behave in my job.
It doesnt'affect the rest of my xmas either - the poeple coming on here calling me a cunt cos I expected someone to be polite to me does tho.....

sorry mate but how did YOU choose to go out to them
![Confused](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)
mate they called you as you was working,,,,,,, you couldnt have chosen not to take on the work without NOT doing you job which is NOT what you signed up for when you joined
ALSO if you dont get paied extra for overtime/working public holidays ( which im sure isnt true as even halfords staff get time and a half for that and they are another company who are contracted to work everyday even christmas day due to there motortrade link) if you dont get paied that mate its time to move to another company mate,,,,, as your job dont pay well,,,, your company gets HUGE amounts of money by ripping off insurance companys with there fees,,,, we do pay them when our insurances go up btw,,,, we just dont account it as they rip us off anyway
you was paied to be at work,,,,,, thats the harsh line of it,,,,,,, infact if you was on call why arrange to have a family dinner and then moan when its cold,,,, would have been better off having your family arrange it round you,,,,,, christ my old man worked almost every christmas eve night till christmas day at 6am and we had to wait for him to wake up to open the presents,,,,, its a bitch but we understood he done those nights to get a BIG pay cheque and pay for our presents,,,, least we could do was allow him to watch us open em
![Confused](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)
i had my chistmas dinner at 4pm yesturday as the missus went to visit her mums grave and her family poped into the pub for a drink for her,,,, wasnt planned BUT i got over it
maybe you should be a little laid back about things mate as it seems you fly off the handle with people you aint got a clue about cause they are telling you what THEY think and you dont agree
if you dont want there opinion then maybe dont shout about it at your local pub/ interweb site,,,,,,,, simple option tbh
as for helping people,,,,, how many times have you actually helped a member on here for no reason and no personal game for a nobody on this site where there screen is busted ?
not many people on here actually have the time to help people and ive also helped people on here who i thought was friends to actually be fucked over by them and have them also not answer there phones to me when they answer to others i know,,,,,, fact of life mate is EVERYONE is a cunt,,,,, even you and me at times !
i just accept when i get screwed over as respect that ive done it in the past as im sure you have done something to others too that they didnt like !

I think you all need to get out more, make it a new years resolution or something:
'will spend less time being abusive to other members of pf....'
No doubt this will open me up to a whole string of abuse but im not too bothered cos im going outside.
However like the rest of you im going to give me two cents:
Whether or not this thread is about tipping I think if someone wants to tip someone they can choose to, and if someone wants to bitch about not being tipped for something, that is up to them as well.
I cannot understand how you could do a job for someone and them not have the courtesy to say thanks. I would have to concentrate not to say thanks automatically. I think its funny sometimes in work (claims call centre thingy) when people phone up and you tell them something isnt covered and they are unhappy but they say thanks anyway automatically even though if they had thought things through they would not have said it.
You seem to have found yourselves some ungrateful twats. My advice is simple, in light of your crap experiences, next year just get drunk and have nice crimbo, peoples windscreens can wait till tomorrow.

being abusive to people who disagree with you is pathetic and makes you sound like a keyboard warrior - im not trying to get into a slagging match but i believe in my point of view.
the national company has a huge role to play in it. Corporate companies are now mainstream and "people" are left out. The reason you didnt get tipped was because you work for a huge company and could have been anyone doing the job - no1 phoned you up personally and said hey could you do us a favour........ they phoned a national company on a holiday. - blame the company for sending you out on the super important religous holiday youve taken.
quite frankly i wouldnt have tipped(you have said you dont care about tips but you mention them enough) as ive already said but i would have been courteous. However, if your attitude is the same in person as on here im suprised you get any thanks at all. How are people to know methods of payment when they just call to get glass fitted?
Im not getting into a slagging match but you clearly think because you worked christmas day people should automatically bend over and be nice - WHY? you dont change their life with your work. they dont know you on a personal level and you could have been any of a number of people called to do the work.
If your not religous you shouldnt complain about working christmas day

i do agree its the least they could do is say thanks but hey whats it matter. you do the job your getting paid - not as if your wanting to buy them a drink or anything?
