Where is the professional pride of the craftsman?

#servicereview

Is it because of the hectic life or indifference that many talented craftsmen don't completely 'finish' their work these days?
For example, we had a sink with hanging cabinet installed in the bathroom.
We had called the man because the company in which we purchased the sink wanted a professional from a very expensive company to come. The proposal of their bill was to fall from the back.
We called a plumber in the vicinity.
He immediately started by saying that he was retiring and it was his penultimate assignment.
In the afternoon, he had to go to 1 other customer.

For some reason, he struggled quite a bit with connecting the tubes. Hanging the cabinet under the sink didn't seem to go so naturally either.
I had helped him hold the locker a little bit. But at the end, let him finish his work alone.
Around 12 o'clock he showed up in the living room.
“The cabinet was hanging and the sink was placed,” he said.
We paid him and only went to look at the result afterwards.
A slide of the cabinet under the sink was half open. What turned out? You couldn't slide the slide further into it to the back. There was too much of a piece of wood. I just sawed that off myself.

Another time we had drivers installed.
This guy also said it was okay. He had been working on it for half an afternoon.
This time, too, we did not immediately see in the bedroom where he was last busy and what turned out?
He had only hung the driver on one suspension nut. Over time, it collapsed because she had to carry the weight of the entire radiator and the suspension screw eventually fell out. I had to prop the radiator with books and have another installer come to attach the driver firmly at three points.

The last thing we experienced was a 'key-lock' installer.
We had somehow forced the lock. Don't ask me how. I wouldn't remember.
At least we couldn't get the door open anymore.
The man came and did something with a device. The work had taken less than fifteen minutes and he asked for 80 euros!

In these hectic times when people are often under stress due to the abundant work, people have apparently lost their self-esteem and pride about their performance.
There is always something that goes wrong. Deliberate or not.
Or was that just with me?
Was I plagued by Morphy's Law?“It might be funny. But really not fun to experience

So if you need a professional, don't do as I do and it's best to check the result of their work before you pay him

This must be very careful when repairing it so as not to leave problems in it

This type of inconvenience usually occurs when we do not have an understanding of their previous work, recommendations and have constant monitoring and supervision of the work.

I think that as professionals we must provide a good service so that tomorrow we can count on fixed customers

it is important to see the work that has been done, even if you are a professional, we must make sure that everything is in order

we must be very cautious when inspecting a job that you are paying for it to be done to you it is not fair to pay for anything

Always check that the works have been carried out properly before paying. Casual messers are everywhere. Also between professionals who you think do their job well. Check references in advance and then go over the delivered work with them.

I think that for any profession it is always good to have a prior knowledge of people's experience, it doesn't always turn out the way we want it

That's why it's not good to refer either because then I feel guilty about what they do wrong or the person doesn't like it

It usually happens to me and so I am very cautious when I go to hire someone to do the work

My mother has done several bad jobs for her and the worst thing is that she has been family and she has had the same to pay for the remaining experience

There are people who are actually very intelligent and any job is easy for them, but there are others who say they know and don't know anything.

This is how you indicate, we must first verify the work before paying me, it happened to me that they did a bad job for me.

Hello, some are beginners, that is, theory is not the same as practice, and of course, sometimes we come across those new ones

Hello. This is a very interesting question, I think that personal interests at this time are more important than other things

As time has passed, efficient jobs have deteriorated, when we look for quality it is like looking for a needle in a haystack

I have also had some problems with certain arrangements in the home, some masons have not done things right, that will make a burden because at the same time the details emerged, it is in view of collapsing a flat that they made me to do it again because the first one was thrown out badly @Toto Animo

If I let someone come in, I would check the work right away. Provided it can be checked, of course. But you're right that people often do half the work these days.

It seems like many think half work is enough, or everyone is tired, and rushed at the same time. If it hangs or stands, it's good.
I agree with you: real passionate professionals are hard to find, and when you find them, they are so busy that you have to... Show moreIt seems like many think half work is enough, or everyone is tired, and rushed at the same time. If it hangs or stands, it's good.
I agree with you: real passionate professionals are hard to find, and when you find them, they are so busy that you have to wait endlessly.
My solution? Word of mouth. I ask people about experiences (not google), that still works best.
Or the golden old hobbyist, someone who likes to do the job, and pays attention to it.

the good work that professionals can do is a great place, but if you are right we must see and examine the real work done

This is really important . Reviews of jobs that he/she has done are really important when choosing to hire someone.

First, checking the reputation of a professional in advance can also help to avoid disappointments afterwards.

It is the right way to do it: first the adjustments are made and the instructions are followed, and then the full payment for the service is made.

The problem is that most professionals have been questioned about it and then you get messers who come to take a grain. It is best to always ask for references first and then take a look there.

it is something that we must see, since many professionals no longer want to do a good job, they only do it where the president goes, as he says, but it should be noted that not all of them are

really, sometimes things like that usually happen, they do the job just by doing it, but we shouldn't generalize and judge everyone, not everyone is
