Hi guys this topic has probably been done but ive got to get your views,
Last week on my dinner break i had to nip to a friends flat which is owned by a large housing association and during my visit an engineer arrived for the boilers annual service, ( obviously they have maintenance contract for said housing) what i saw was simply just laziness and disgraceful , The engineer walked past me into the kitchen not really noticing me with the position i was sitting and i can HONESTLY say within 5 minutes he'd took out his analyser ran the hot tap for 15-20 seconds and that was IT, Because the chair i was sitting in i could see most of what he was doing as kitchen door was slightly opened, The engineer in question farted about with his tool case ( tidying it up i presumed) and that was him finished not even taking the boiler case off, I couldnt believe it , But what i did found brilliant is when he came out of the kitchen to tell my friend he was done after his huge service he had to pass me face to face and all my work gear is well labeled with the gassafe logos and my details and i noticed his eyes as i said hello to him passing having a glance at the logo, This guys hole demeanor changed trying to go back to the kitchen, now hed just told my friend he was done and everything was ok, my friend signed a piece of paper and i dont know if when he saw my clothing i was there to observe his service but he certainly went a pale colour, he walked back into kitchen then straight back out you could see he was flustered, he muttered il have to renew CO detector then 5 mins later off he went, now i realise these guys are doing this type of job day in day out and that it would feel repetitive but what a disgrace , its guys like this that give us all a bad name sometimes, I made a joke on a post the other day about an analyser service just a bit of humour but its astonishing to see it first hand, I would say 15 mins and that was that , Unbelievable guys
