They were always a miss-matched couple. He was such a good guy and great cusotmer. She was always unhappy and suspicious about what I was doing and just upset that I was washing what she considered to be a clean car.
It taught me customer service at an early age. It paid off because I earned more than my friends over those summers and at times detailing was my only job. The detailing jobs carried over into the school year so that certianly helped. This particular cusotmer gave me alot of referals consistanting of his friends and guys from his Country Club. These referals kept me busy outside my immediate neighborhood. He would just tell me, "save Friday afternoons for him always"-and I did. It was great money for me at that time in my life and washing a Porsche was alot of fun for a kid who was car crazy from birth.
Way back then the supplies we quite basic-Armorall, a can of Turtle Wax, Liquid Ebony for dark cars & 3M Fill in Glaze for light colored cars (Todd-do you even remember these last two products), Turtle Wax Bug and Tar remover, Dupont #7 Polishing compound, never dull for the exhaust pipes, Windex, tuff stuff for interiors and Zip-wax car wash. A single gray bucket and a sponge. I dried all the cars with something called and absorber (synthetic cloth).
Fun to remember those times.
That is absolutely knee-slapping hilarious. Some people are in a world of their own. Not trying to "one up" you or hi-jack your thread but I have a shorter story I would like to share about a coworker.
A woman I work with is a total car slob. She leases her cars and almost never cleans them. Whenever I get in she always has to move stuff off the seat and my feet are in a sea of garbage. So one day she actually traded her car in for a new one and another woman I work with literally paid her a compliment on how nice a job she did on cleaning it!!! hahha it was a totally different car (same make and model but newer)but no one realized.

I agree, it`s just one of those things that no one will ever know the answer to. On a regular basis I see people with crap filling the back seats and blocking the rear window....barely enough room to fit a driver. I just don`t understand.
