Thread: Roverlord will be closed over Easter and no more pick ups on Weekends or after hours

And fair call too mate...

"Never be to busy making a living that you for get to make a life "

You are a long time dead and need some good memories to sustain you eg of fishing or whatever hits the spot - go for it!!!

Look after yourself first Mario, and don't forget to change your phone number... No use working yourself into an early grave...

I know how hard it was to escape pesky customers back when I was really busy, I just had to tell people I was fully booked and that was that.

It's the fact they demand you to give up your time, they might buy their parts elsewhere don't get everything or are supplied wrong parts or their supplier is out of stock or brand , but because their suppliers are shut and they are in the middle of a project on a week end they expect me to bend over backwards.
My kids had music teacher who once said to my boys when they were studying music, they wanted to learn another instrument as well as the one they were playing. He said be an expert in one instrument instead of being mediocre in many. I took those words on board. We are an on line business that's what we do , and well do it very well, our competitors try to dabble in all avenues.
It's 1am now and I'm still answering email enquiries, time to get to bed and get up in them morning and start again. So when I get some time to myself I don't need some one telling me I have to be there on weekends also. You try and help people but often they just take advantage of you.

Nothing should get in the way of fishing.

Cheers

Look at the bright side Mario.

Staying home on Sunday to look after your loyal customers can save you an absolute fortune and lack of stress and sleep when you consider the 'cost' of traveling all the way to Eildon in the wee hours. Not to mention (though I will ) the slaughter of indigenous wildlife on the black spur (what did Skippy ever do to you ? ). And all for what ?, a couple of underside Redfin .

Good on, Mario! Your service has always been second to none - without doubt the best online store I have ever dealt with. As a mentor told me once, there are some customers that you don't need. What I used to do was let the answering machine take the calls after hours (that's what we had before Messagebank, for the youngsters). Check the messages and then decide if they're worth your time to respond or not.
