This call concerned termites which was normal but the building they were in was anything but. This infestation was in a building that one of my fiercest competitors rented from the mgt. company and to say the least they were not to happy to hear I was coming out to measure it up. Now I can understand that they wanted the job and they did give a bid but there price was extremely high and even if I wasn’t a preferred vendor I don’t think they would have landed it. I can also see why they asked me to come out after 5 and park in the back so as not to cause a stir with potential customers passing by on this very busy road. What I did not like was the way I was treated as if I were a spy sent in to tap their phones and steal their files. Their mgr. followed my every move and proceeded to grill me on every detail of what and how I would do the job. I don’t mind when customers follow me so much but getting the 3rd degree is something I’m definitely not fond of.
