big bonus today

Been doing a big job for past two days.

On a fiat scudo taxi.
Came in for a clutch change .
got friends at dealers and they said book time is 10.5 hrs just for clutch .

Also had to do both cv joints , both front wheel bearings , both inner and outer drive shaft boots, and repair some sheered captive nuts from in chassis .
Once clutch was off noticed dual mass flywheel was goosed .
So a new one was fitted.
gave the bloke a rather hefty bill and he gave me a £300 tip. BONUS

So I'm over the moon tonight

nice to be appreciated. don't tell the missus lol treat the car

scrap that last post cover yourself incase it slips out it was 30 not 300 and she gets the full 30 you get all browning points then treat the car

you checked it was real money

Car gets what it needs no matter .... Lol ..can't really treat it

300 quid tip is pretty impressive nice though   

i used to get tips at work quite often probably a few hundred a year this year ive had a five pound tip and 6 black bullets

His bill was £1700 in total

Gave me £2000 and said keep the rest for your hard work

Fook me that's a hell of a tip, wish I would get some that big!

Probably happy with a good job. Fact it was done and he wont loose money on his taxi work and probably knows its worth dbl that if he had to use a garage or dealer parts so well done rob another happy customer

Alot of the newer cars use the dual mass flywheels   

That is a good tip
Most I've ever had is a nifty but it does make you happy to know that your works appreciated
Plus you always tend to look after people like that in future, not because they gave you a big tip but because they appreciate what you do and have done for them

And yes it was 30 squid he gave you rob   

It's certainly appreciated. I've nearly saved the 3k i needed for the new house.

Kinda wish we weren't moving Coz i was saving up for a boat..

I would use some that 3k for Modena or Nismo diffs for your gtir :-D
