Never say no
Last week a very young handsome man drove down to our shop, he ask the price of a storex tank and we(me and my colleagues )gave him 125k and he said do we have any tank repairers number and we said no we did not have .And I stood up and asked sir did you want to buy or you want to repair? and he said to me he wants to repair his tank but his plumber told him the tank is not repairable .I asked why and what happened to the tank he said the tank fell from the scaffolds due to heavy rainfall with breeze that broke the pipes including the rope used to tie down the tank to the scaffolds . Hustler like me said to him I can do it all my colleagues eyes was on me and they discouraged me not to go because a professional plumber have examine it and condem it that who am I to repair it .I told the man let's go so I can see it .when I got there it's not what am thinking that I saw .the tank got squeezed to the extent that I was thinking of going back infact I have make up my mind to go back to shop but I don't want to tell the man directly that I can't do it rather I gave the man heavy price . waiting for me to hear be going I just heard go and do it .
This man was in a hurry of going out and he went inside to bring out money .I removed my shirt and started working to be honest with you how I do it is what I did not understand is above my knowledge and my understanding before he could come out to give his children money to give me anytime am done he was so surprise that he did not recognize his tank .he was asking me where's his tank
To be honest with you I was so happy that day but the man was curious about how much I collected from him on a work that is not up to 5minute
When I got to shop my colleagues was asking me did I do it I told yes .how much did I collect I also told them. They asked me to share the money 60/40 for them .I told lai lai I can't do it since last week the two of them have not been talking to me , keeping mute at me
