Felling constantly robbed in this country !

Why do I feel utterly robbed by everyone in this country these days ? Had a tradesman come out to my house today, he spent 10 minutes looking at something, telling me it’s broke and charging me 70 quid for the pleasure without fixing a thing. I went to a doctor recently, barely looked me over and prescribed me antibiotics…

As for the boiler, I recently went with another fantastic company who came and looked at it for free then provided fantastic info on best approach. No surprise that I’m hired them to fit a new one.

You can settle for crap services but I won’t. My faith has been slightly restored and maybe it was my fault for not shopping around more.

Nothing is free, they have charged you for the call somewhere. Because if they were working for free they wouldn't be in business long.

Why did you complain about the doctor when they gave you want you wanted? A doctor's note for work! The reason why they prescribed antibiotics is because too many people think they have to get something when they go to the doctor and they'd be more pissed off if they were prescribed a placebo.
