Don't get me wrong, I love their business, but sometimes I wish they would just let me get my work done. I have been so distracted from an annoying customer before that I messed things up and never noticed it because I was busy explaining my job and answering questions for the customer. Then they come back on me for it later down the road. They don't realize how fast we have to work sometimes due to weather or other reasons. Honestly, I should have charged him more for the 8 hour teaching lesson he got at my expense.
