Human nature - Gotta luv it

[ozwinner]

There seems to be a cynical form of thinking, (which cuts across all age groups) that everyone who is in business for themself is rich and out to rip you off. Because of that they are fair game. Well I'm here to tell you that many of us in our own businesses aren't rich, many are just keeping the wolves from the door and staying off the dole. Ozzwinner is a prime example (hope you don't mind the reference Al). .

Not at all old chap.

PS Probably should learn to keep my mouth shut. But what the heck.
Cheers - Neil

Hmm, me too, maybe thats why I attract trouble?

...Cliff problem it didn't seem to work for a helper who just swiped and spiked. ...

That is why the 'systems' people 'train' (brainwash) the guppies.

Get your 'helpers' to follow the 'circle it' procedure & it may help stem the loses.

Now I've finished (almost) the software exercise I am working with I am selling digital surveillance systems, the stories I hear now are incredible, especially from business owners who are now a couple of staff lighter and several $$$$$$$$$$$$ better off.
PS, if you need one send me a PM, good deals for all

[outback]

Thanks for the offer Iain, but I don't have any digitals that need surveiling at the moment.


Naturally I will keep you in mind should they become roudy and out of control.

Lady "Hello, my husband purchased a polishing kit from you at the Melb wood show for $120, but you only charged our credit card $1-20."

Cant you get in touch with the bank and find out who they are??

Al :confused:

Al :confused:

Wouldn't that be a breach of privacy laws??

[Iain]

Only if it's not THEIR money :mad:

[ozwinner]

So they have "rights" and U doesnt?

Al :confused:

Al :confused:

Isn't that always the case nowadays. They get everything they want and we and u are the ones who have to bend over and take it?:confused:

[ernknot]

Thats the way it goes, small business, big jar of vaseline.

[Gaza]

Gaza, you idea has some merit,
except of course when as neil said "I looked at my mobile and noticed that their phone number had been blocked and didn't show in received calls,"

Brudda, i meant that Neil did not need paper and pen, as the lady told him her number he dialed into the hanset for use later.

[ubeaut]

Think I see Gaza's point - Enter credit card # and expiry for later retrieval. Not such a silly idea, didn't even think of that.


Well thunk Gaza

I fully realise that the old aren't a separate species nor are the young (although there might be a sub species or two). I'm just slightly amazed that it's the older ones who seem to be the biggest perpetrators (loathe to say it) of this form of crime.

Perhaps the old saying "The Good Die Young" explains it a little bit.

Because you're only a young fella, young fella! (Insert emoticon depicting wise old bugger, winking and being generally wise and old).
