is it getting that bad?

[user_removed]

i'v not been here for a while tbh

thought i'd pop on today see how work was in general around the country, hope everones doing ok.

i broke up today for 2 weeks as they wouldn't let me stay on site alone over they holidays, that snow up north fecked me over a couple of weeks ago. lost 7 days work.

anyway, i'v been reading essexboy's and ahmeds posts as i found them rather amusing, in fact sorry, fu..ckin hillarious.

why do people think you can just do a course and start booking private jobs in a week later, surely you cannot be taught every potential problem you may face in a day or a week.

i'v been at it 7 years nearly and i still learn new things everyday, todays lesson dont hit you frozen brush on a heater because the fecker will snap like a cheap chocolate bar.

seriously, what a sad state the trade is in, when you have people attemting to do this, i didn't take my first private job on for about 18 months because we all know 1 fook up cost you alot of money down the road.

essexboy - take note while im not laughing.

you sound like a good kid, get on as a labourer even if it takes you 6-12-18 months do not go straight in branding yourself as a spread, it will goes tit5 up mate, i would bet everything i have on it.

your enthusiasm is great, but dont rush in. you shouldn't be touching any job with out being 100% behind your desicions and confident you know what your doing.

and we wonder the price is going down and down, how many more are out there like this. scary stuff

 

[broonster]

fully agree our trade is realy up the creek.No light at the end of the appreticeship tunnel,very, very few young lads being trained i fear for the whole building trade not just ours

 

[beddy]

essexboy and ahmed are alias' mac, but we let the real people who pretend, think we don't realise so just ignore them

 

[Sandy Thompson]

all good tradesmen have to stay together and try keep the crap out but withsome CHEAP is king

 

[user_removed]

scary thing though beddy, there are actually people out there like that.

I'm fed up of being accused of being FAKE!!!!
My name is Ahmed Nawaz, yes that's me in my picture!!!!
I live in Birmingham,
Yes i did a one day course but i am only working for friends & family & practise in my shed till i get good enough to make it as a full time spread!!!!
I haven't charged for any work i have done so far it's all been for friends & family(mainly family)
Ok I've had a few jobs crack on me but that's experience innit!

So Mr Beddy how do we know you are not a fake??
Can you prove it??
And also i bet when you finished your course you still had to learn the ropes like i'm having to now?

ahmed me old son, while your doin your private jobs, do you get sick of certain customers trying to knock you down in price or asking you to 'just do this other little bit while youve got your tools out' or better still, asking if you can connect a gas appliance and not tell anyone?...
or is it just me?

 

[beddy]

flynny thats an easy question. all you need to do is type it into google

 

[flynnyman]

Yeh i know but he still needs to answer it

 

[big ali]

i'll answer it..... 9 inches on the flop

Thing is though (and I know I'm gonna get in the neck) plasterers have bought it on themselves.

I've made no secret of the fact I'm a courser and the reason for that is that I couldn't get a start with a plasterer despite nigh on 20yrs labouring for different trades. Plasterers are well known for being secretive about their craft and only passing it on to their sons, we all know families who've been doing it generations.

Government saw a shortage in the trade and subsidised plastering schools, and we all know the government never fcuk up eh?

That's my twopenneth worth anyway.

 

[irish_spread]

think you are all being a bit unfair on the newbies lads. Eveyone has to start somewhere. So who is 'adhmed' Flynny cos I have spoken to the guy and he seems a nice enough fellow

he is nice enough but he is also someone else who you have spoken to before

 

[Essexboy]

[irish_spread]

[big ali]

[irish_spread]

[Ahmed78]

Here is your answer anyway हाँ, मैं पनीर की तरह

come on then 'ahmed' if you're real, take a picture of yourself holding a sign saying plasterers forum

 

[Danny]

the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the

But I have to agree we are possibly a little harsh to some of the newbies... Which should stop and if it is another member on the wind up let me know via PM just so I know

courser or not everybody deserves some respect... (yup I am was a courser but also did my time with 2 spreads so from both sides of the coin)



By the way my aliases are Dancutts danielcutts davlic and davlicmedia they are used for testing account functionality as what I see is completely different to the normal member so I like to see how changes look and what restrictions I have and if they work

It's mainly beddy flynny and grand that pick on us. Oh and sparks but he don't matter cod he works in teh pound shop

 

[Pug]

Well I hope you're real Ahmed cos we're friends. I been sectioned for having imaginary mates in the past...

 

[spark2010]

lol ,

this is definately the best post since i have been on here... well done mac_plastering.
i just want to say i really like ahmed78, he seems a good guy, and fair play to him for trying....
BUT...

Its essexboy that does it for me...lol
He's calling himself a plasterer after a 1 day course, talking about putting waterproofer into finish and them polish labourers
slicing a bag of hardwall all over essexboys deadlocks....sorrry i mean dreadlocks ...lol what an idiot man.. he is the joke of this forum

So thanks you mac_plastering for pointing that out to the rest of us and hopefully essexboy will finally see and realise he's just a labourer and as you
can see essexboy mac_plastering has called you a labourer as well... so what have you to say to that!!!

lol

oh ya and essexboy likes to stick insualted plasterboard to brick walls using PVA

 

[Ahmed78]
