Dealing with the public.
We had a guy call about a month ago about having something powder coated, after he described it to me the best he could I told him it would be $250 to sandblast and coat it. After i gave him the price he then tells me he has two of them and I said if we did both at the same time I could do it for $200 each, he was happy with the price and said he'd be in touch, about 10 minutes later he calls back to verify the price I had just given. Two weeks later he dropped off the items and I had to order in the powder since I didn't have enough of the color he wanted, not a big deal because he wasn't in a big hurry. Last Wednesday the powder arrived so Thursday I blasted and coated both pieces. Today he came to pick them up and wrote out the check for $250 and as soon as I saw it I knew I was in for an argument. I told him the price was $400 which set him off and we went back and forth for a few minutes but he ultimately paid the $400 and left but I doubt we'll be seeing him again. The same thing happens to people who come for rust repair on their car, if we tell them $800-$1000 all they heard was $800 and when the final bill is $900 or $950 it turns into a big argument, I swear everybody that comes here has selective hearing. I'm about tired of dealing with the public and all the B.S that goes with it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
