I will not do residential work in bad areas. Or residential work, if I can help it.
I want to, but I won't get a gun to take with me when I am in bad areas doing commercial work.
If someone treats me with disrespect, I won't fix it for them. I won't lose my steam, but decline the work respectfully.
I won't poop in the same establishments I frequent to do work. Golden Rule. :D

I don't do refer work ever period, very limited commerical I will not do mobile homes.
I don't do homes in areas that homes are worth less than 100K.
When I was begining in this field I new an old man that did refer work. He did most of his work at night I don't work at night. Anyway he told me one morning about an occurence. A man and woman were having an argument at the bar the man got up went to the bathroom and then came back. When he returned he pulled out a straight razor and cut the woman throat to the point he almost severed it.
At that point I decided I would never do refer work and have to spend time in bars.

For a proportionate compensation, I will do most anything (pertaining to work, you perverts. So just stop getting excited right now!).
I've worked in some of the worst areas of Baltimore, DC and Philly and I've worked with rats literally crawling on me while laying in water under a paper mill. Not that I am physically fit to work some of the conditions I have worked, but as long as I can do something, I am not against doing it.

NO REFER WORK!!!
No work for "slum lords", they are too cheap to pay you half of the time, and the other half of the time they won't authorize the work that needs done!:mad:
And the #1 thing is sell the customer something they don't need.

I won't rip people off.
I won't work under a sales quota.
I won't be personally disrespected by a customer.

What won't I do?
1) Fat Chicks.........I reserve the right to break this rule in the event large amounts of burbon become involved.
2) Dark dead end streets in bad neighborhoods with nefarious charactors lurking around........I'm an HVAC guy, not a combat soldier.
3) Pull anything over 100 lbs up to a roof with a rope, one pinched nerve is enough, thanks..........they invented cranes for a reason.
4) Mess with high voltage over 600volts, don't have the training or the safety gear........call an electrician.
5) Animal shelters................YUCK!..................and may the guy who decided hanging MUA Duct frunaces 20 ft in the air, directly over the dog cages would be a good idea rot in h@ll!
6) Sewage systems in any form beyond maybe changeing a fuse or telling them to call a plumber........if I gotta pop the hatch, forget it.
7) Be verbaly abused by anyone......customer, boss, whoever........treat me with the respect I show you or have a nice day, I'm outta here.
Other than that.....pretty much anything goes.

I won't do work where I have a gut feeling that's telling me "don't do this". That doesn't seem to apply to fishing though.

1) Work in Chinese joints where the cockroaches commit suicide in the contactor:eek:
2) Stand there in a crowded Sub shop while the owner is LOUDLY voicing expletives as to how my company (and me) over charge, always fixing the same sh*t and never fix it right (never approves replacing the leaking evap.)
and screaming how he'll cut my F ing heart out:eek: ( happened 10 years ago but I'll never forget it)
3) There is right and there is wrong, sometimes right and wrong don't coincide with "legal" but I won't do anything "wrong" legaly or moraly.
4) (VERY IMPORTANT) Anything as far as short cut quick fix ect... that demeans or otherwise would put a "hack" status on me or my profession.
If it ain't safe. IT AIN'T SAFE!
5) use Ben Gay as a lubricant :rolleyes: (not me:D)

ummmmmm, with garlic; YUMMY!
My dad used to fry up this concoction in butter on Sunday mornings. To keep the rest of us from wanting to help him consume this delacacy, he called this meal; fried farts and garlic.
