I pay to dive Gilboa just like everybody else.

The way he treated us, I wouldn't be surprised if he charged his own family to dive there.

Like I said before, His attitude was like he couldn't care less, he was doing us a 'favor' of filling our tanks. And the place was dead - middle of the week, so it's not like he was sooo busy that he couldn't even smile and be polite. Do I have to pay extra for that???

Now that the economy sucks and there probably aren't as many divers' diving, does he appreciate his patrons now?? Does he wish he could get back some of the instructors that won't go there any more or the potential new divers from those instructors? I'm not alone and have heard other similar experiences but won't speak for those people. I just know that I don't drive anywhere for a few hours so I can be treated like crap. You don't appreciate my business then believe me, you won't get it.

He does have a nice place but, would you go to a restaurant where they threw your food at you?
 
When I go to dive I don't need a hassle or to be scowled at by the staff - let alone the owner of the place, when I'm a PAYING customer. If I treated my patrons the way I was treated on my last Gilboa trip I would be out of a job.

I have dove Gilboa for many, many moons...

I hate to say it, but that is EXACTLY the way i was treated last time at Gilboa...and last time was my LAST time...i'd rather dive a murky river than be treated like that again.
