Oh the fuss. The two guys in question were the ones who wander up and down the line of cars waiting to be washed and ask which wash you want, and then give you a receipt and already think very highly of themselves. They handed me attitude so I handed it back - and I am betting a lot of people on this forum would have done the same, but whatever.
As I said the actual working folks at the Octopus do a great job and I tip them every time.
