Up till about two weeks ago I was a bit quiet. Last week was the ffirst week this year I worked 6 days and then this week I am in all 7. Done 2 jobs in the evening as well this week and having to do 2 small jobs on sunday then i start another job lasting 2 weeks on monday. So for me things seem to be picking up, well at least for now will probably be back to fingering my arse in a few weeks

 

[tex it all]

i know that feeling

Still only bits and pieces going on nothing major , lots of under cutting and newbie spreads working for about £80 a day . Far two spreads about these days chasing very little work.

Its sod's law, since buying my window cleaning round i've had quite a few calls for plastering. Done the smaller ones when we had the snow but the bigger jobs had to sub oot

bits, took a call the other week from some property developer wanting to know my 'day rate'...
didnt even bother turning up....
they already told me theyd had a bloke in on day rate and he kept turning up half p'ssed..

i can guess what they were paying him...

couldnt be arsed going to the job and watching their little shocked faces...

from the people i know part the problem is not wanting to work for people for fear of people going bankrupt .......
