Locksmith’s

Locksmith’s normally have to deal with people who will get a problem they know
nothing about(or cant be bothered to deal with).
So the customer will phone a company ,be prepared to pay quite a bit of money for
them to get them out of that problem.
But when the engineer turns up, they will insist on standing over there shoulder and tell
them how to do there job!
Most people train hard and expect to be paid to become a supervisor.
But there’s still a large amount of the population how get a kick out of paying to go on
a power trip.(the customer’s always right ,but only if they have enough money!)

ie)
customer- Im locked out of my house,Can you get me in ?

locksmith- Yep no problem.

customer- No! you don’t do it like that!(or) int you suppose to put a bit of wire in
like on TV?
Open a door to quick and they’ll say “it must be a crap lock”not that they are a good
locksmith.(which is why they pay the money)
Take to long and they’ll say”there a crap locksmith ” not it’s a good lock.

So if you’ve got a bit of money to spare , way not ask a Locksmith to fit a lock that he
(or she ) cant open , and then a week later phone up and say your locked out and need
to get in A.S.A.P.
just for a laugh.
If they open it they must of lied about the lock,if not at lest you know you’v got a
good one.
