Unusual requests

[Brian Trout]

I can't say as I've had anyone do that to me, but I did have a customer once 
who kept trying to touch me inappropriately.  While I finished a multi-visit 
repair job, I did make sure to ALWAYS have an object, preferably my toolbox 
directly in front of me while we talked so as to 'block' access.  Needless 
to say, I didn't go back to his home after that job was done.

I never made much of an issue out of it at the time, but am not sure what 
other people may or may not have done.  (And don't worry, he died several 
years ago, so he's not 'after' anyone else. Odd thing to me, he was married 
with kids... strange...)
