tbh, if it was me owning the unit/business.
i would just say, yeh sure borrow it, but come down this day at this time or **** off basically.

Thats only half the problem though.Originally Posted by bmw156
Also what about people "borrowing" the tools and never returning/breaking them.

why lend them when you can hire them? Even if you return the cash when they return the tool. As for phone calls - only in office hours, if its outside then they dont want to pay...
lmao at everyone else getting pulled into doing jobs outside their work - I thought it was only me. Im a graphic designer now, so I sit on a pc most of the day... so apprently I know everything there is to know about computers... EVAR.
Same with cars, my gf's family think im they're fleet manager (they have 4 mondeo's, polo, ibiza, corsa, mervia and recently some jap van shed I've never heard of that half the engine is missing/not connected)
If only I had some time to myselftbh im my own worst enemy...

that takes the piss tbf mate think you will just have to be blunt and explain that you own thw tools as you need them to earn money so cant afford to loan them out and that if they want your knowledge to book the car in and you will repair it for them

I get the same with IT repairs (which is what I do for the dayjob). If any unknown/private numbers call when I'm feeling lazy I just leave it go to voicemail.
I make it clear that if I miss a call and there's no voicemail then I won't bother ringing back. It seems a lot of people don't like to scrounge via voicemail so that sorts out a lot of problems for me.
Because I did a lot of work to the nova, mum&dad like to drag me in to get their corsa sorted out, like when the MOT expired.

I can relate to this. Phone calls arent so bad, its when you get illedgable chavs texts asking how to make their uninsured and taxed Astra GSi's faster when there isnt a tyre on them.
I spent 90% of my money on Drink and Women, the rest I just wasted.

Thank **** I am a useless bugger!
