useless cunts getting paid more than you, and me being expected to do the work of 4 men cause said useless cunts cant do the work.
And when you put your ntice in your suddenly worth more money and big pay rises are offered to keep you, if the company is offering it now then i must be worth it so why dont they just pay you that in the first place

Im self employed, i love my work. ![Wink](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
nothing "gets" me.
No collegues to get pissed off with, no boss to winge about, Only hard part is convincing the customer that they want to give you their money

Love my job, HATE Bath though (Where the office is)
Postcard beautiful city, crawling with crackheads and alcholics. Way worse than Manchester, seriously!
Not to mention horrific parking prices.
Shit place.

having to get up at 6 to go there
having to deal with electronics engineers that get paid £35+ an hour and have no mechanical sympathy or basic working knowledge of an engine.
the crap coffee from the vending machine

People who get stroppy and angry with me when I cant fix their car at the roadside. ![Bat](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/pascontent.gif)
Had a guy raring up at me the other month with a VW passat which had thrown a rod through the block, explained that there was nothing I could do to fix it and that I would recover him to the garage. He wasnt happy with that, got really angry and aggressive towards me and said that we're supposed to be able to fix everything! Told him to stop shouting at me or I would leave him where he was and be stranded. After a while, went to get in my van and drive off. Surprise surprise, his attitude soon changed!![](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/angry.gif)
I hate being a verbal punchbag just because the people i go to are having aproblem with the car and need to take it out on someone.
And being in the cold, shitty weather!

Being treated like a jobsworth by boring and clueless suburbanites....
I deal with a lot of the company car servicing and the AMOUNT of self important yuppy pricks who treat the cars like dogshit then want to blast me for their tidy excess bill. Gets pretty annoying getting shouted out by a Topman suit 5 days of the week. Funny bit is how many of them find out how expendable they are when they get cars whipped off them in just under a service, reality hits like a bare metal pad on a warped disc

I'm with Helen
if i didn't have to i wouldn't ever ever work - it's bollox
My main gripe is working with people who absolutely no integrity and will try any scam they can to get their way - whether it be in sales, credit control or parts of accounting
Just do things decently ffs![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
i might hate work but i will not settle for a bad job with anything, unlike some i work with past and present

99% of my customers think a) it's fine to just drive in without a word to anyone - DESPITE the NUMEROUS signs that say the point after the shutter is authorised personal only, no public - and worse still, think B) they can pull into the bit alongside the office and stop there, blatently blocking the whole workshop and stopping anyone going in and out!
Others seem to think they should pull up to the shutter and stop there, again, blocking people from getting in or out!
I mean, how fucking dumb do you need to be!
![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
Yet they STILL do it day in and day out!
Thats pet hate number one.....
Pet hate number two is people that think appointments don't apply to them. Prime example this morning. I ring up customer at half 8 - who's booked in for the first appointment, and explain that it's raining and I need them to drive in to have the work done. I give directions, the guy asked clearly when should he come in, and I CLEARLY stated straight away as he's my first appointment. I think my exact words were "come in straight away, so I can get it done straight away for you". Quarter to 10 I ring him up (he lives 3 miles away) and he's still at home. He says "Oh, I was gonna leave at 10am after the traffic dies down"
![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
Same with virtually ALL the customers I have booked in to have work done in the branch - we give them on the hour appointments - ie, 9am, 10am, 11am, etc etc. Yet they still turn up at quarter past, 20 past, half past - sometimes several HOURS late, and then get miffed when I tell them they won't be getting their car done as they are late and missed their slot! Some give it the "oh, well we were told BETWEEN 9 and 10"
![Rolling Eyes](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)
![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
Third pet hate: people who drive their car in - into a business that WORKS ON CARS - and then close all the windows and lock it up and walk off with the keys!
![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
Finally - those that come down to have work done, and you do the inspection etc on the vehicle, explain to them that it will take say an hour or 2hrs etc, find out if they are going to be waiting there the whole time etc, then ask for their keys, and they insist on taking the ONE car key off their entire bunch of keys. I mean, when your 5 miles from home and it's pissing down outside, and all you are going to be doing for the next hour is sitting in reception - WTF do you need your house keys, your bike lock key and your gym locker key for?!?!?! GIMME THE DAMN BUNCH!!!!

Dont mind it on the whole.
Although waiting for people to pay gets my goat - one example, we done £800 worth of work for a bigish local company over a month ago, and the fuckers have only paid £400 to date - that annoys me, but i guess its just business, they will pay im sure but when, no one knows
