Unfortunately I don't live there - and neither do I have "inflated idea of my (their) own importance." - I simply wished to confirm a recommendation that I was given, as I suspect you would do so.
Fortunately I don't live there either.

My head is in the normal place, my ego is on par with yours, I have never been in the armed forces, I am Internet, forum and newsgroup savvy - and I thought your name was in fact "brass monkey" and not "Jesus H friggin Christ" or perhaps *YOUR* ego allows you to walk on water?
I have not seen any work that "Dave" has done, so I cannot comment on that - I simply checked a recommendation and based only on what I read, I made a decision not to employ 'Dave'.
By the way, with a name like "brass monkey", I must presume that you lack some 'balls' in a rather delicate area?

On the contrary, many customers aren't actually very profitable and are a bit of an obstacle to getting some worthwhile paid work done.

Pesumably they thought you'd lower the tone of the neighbourhood.
Indeed. Note my Moniker.
However there comes a point where some customers you dont want as customers.
Not in business then, are you?
There are an increasing number of people with unrealistic expectations. They seem to feel that they are entitled to a gold plated service for a knock down price.
People like this are more trouble than they are worth why should you bother with them when there are plenty more realistic customers out there ?
OK Fuckwit, e mail me off list with the name of the person who recommended me and we can confirm you are for real.
No problem with client confidenciality, I will already know who it is, and I won't post the details.
Put up or shut up.
Sharp as a knife, this one.
The soup kitchens again for you young feller m'lad, looks as though 'the major' won't be hiring you.
Definitely!
Exactly!
Actually, he should have balls of iron.

Clearly my life is over. I shall wind up the business & allow my family to starve...
Good point Colin :-)
Actually he wouldn't need any balls or monkeys at all.

Didn't the old song go...
'With his balls of steel and his c*ck of brass'?

ps
Can anyone recite the tale of the Good ship Venus?
You asked for it -
A large part of it.
I used to have a typed up copy of the ballad of Eskimo Nell, which is, I think, one of the finest works of poetry in the English language..
This might be of interest from another group...
