Pet Hates ( Excluding Customers)

[telectrix]

as title. let's have some of you pet hates with the trade.
I'll start off with a couple:

1. Captive screws that fall out and get lost when nothing in your parts stock will do.
2. terminal screws that you can't see the head and need to tighten by feel ( many ceiling roses are this).

Not nice is it Dave? My Mrs is worried I'm going to do or say something to upset the equilibrium of a nice area, but I won't, I'll be OK in the morning after a fry up she has promised me for being a good Lad.

That's the best way Pete, getting wound up isn't good at all for our health. Just stick a spud up their exhaust pipe after dark.
