I am bored

Somebody go rattle a cage, I am getting bored. Rusty, where are you when we need you? Someone ask a really stupid question so we can all feel superior. How about a discussion on:

Can I clean a hood w/a cold water machine?
Do I need to mop the floor when we are done?
Do I really need to clean the pipe between the hood and fan? Nobody can see that thing anyway.
What do you mean, tip the fan? The grease acts like a flywheel. The more grease, the less electricity required to keep the fan turning.
I've been here for 20 years, and I've never had the hood cleaned.

I called on a Chinese resturant, he told me
1."I have lots of fren', you give me good price, my fren's all hire you. You be busy, make lotta money!"
2. "NO NO, too much! You do for $175.00 dolla! You rippa me off! last guy do for $150 dolla!"
3. "NO NO, I pay you Tuesday? You come back Tuesday! I give you free food on Tuesday."

I am so bored, I am going to go upgrade that Range Guard control head tonight.

Douglas you shoould get an award for that one. Give us some more!
 
What's wrong with using a cold water machine? They are much cheaper.

What's the deal with the quick reply button?
 
It seems like you do not like the Chinese restaurants.....
 
It seems like you do not like the Chinese restaurants.....am I missing something??
 
You would be surprised how many hoods I have cleaned with the hose in the kitchen. Cant clean ducts and fans with hose, but with hot chemical a hose works wonders. Never brakes and dosent use much diesel or gas.
 
I use the garden hose method in emegencies only. It does get the job done, but most restaurant owners will feel cheated if the pay you $400 to rinse their hood out with their hot water. Sometimes you just have to put on a show. Make them feel like they're getting waht they paid for.
 
Is that part of your sales pitch?
"Sometimes you just have to put on a show. Make them feel like they're getting waht they paid for."
What school is that from?
 
I believe I read that somewhere in the Trump Exhaust sales instruction manual.

I thought it was part of the NFPA 96.

No my sales pitches are full of empty promises. I just make em feel good by telling them things like, "If it wasn't for the clean hood you'd never notice we had been there", and "we don't leave a mess behind for your kitchen staff to clean up". You know, the typical trunk slammin, night flyin lingo.

Chris-

I thought you'd appreciate the recognition. There's no such thing as bad publicity... right? I beleive that comes straight from LA.

How about this for a promise: "Sir I can assure you that you will have NONE of the problems you have had in the past with your previous company.....we always arrive on time as scheduled freshly shaved and showered in clean uniforms. We never leave a mess and we will do a much better job and will only charge you 1/3 of what you were paying with that other company."

Nothin wong with publicity Josh - You are, after all, the first graduate of the Trump Exhaust Sales Certification school.
