I bet you went what you wanna do that for you poof give all that shite up and come work with me,like a true old man dashing his sons dreams cos he was brought up when men were men lol serious though I would hate my son to work with me in future cos of way game gone he only 9 nearly 10 but I feel he shouldn’t do this game as I’ve done work for him,but if he fails at school like in did there is no way I would let him doss about he would have to work
Thing with painting for me is I hate cutting in I can Plaster all day doing same thing but cutting in I’m bored after about 2ft
That’s why I dragged him kicking and screaming with me, I wasn’t going to have him dossing around while me and the Mrs worked
.
My path similar to many on here I didn’t like school school didn’t like me when I got booted out I thought yes nice doss for a while but my old man went I don’t think so he gave me the Friday off and the weekend then he got me a job with a Plasterer I didn’t pick plastering plastering picked me and those first few days I loved it what a sucker but I’ve earned good money and it’s paid the bills been a hard long slog but I’ve got a trade albeit one that I feel is in decline but seeing this new stuff and blokes talking about it sort of keeps you going
Lol when I skimmed my upstairs I said to Mrs I will paint it all white and you can dress the room with a bit of colour she said that’s brilliant and would workBalls to cutting in.
Paint the lot white.
Tell them thats all b@q are now selling.

The fcuk do they get away with that then
What’s your story jess? U couldn’t of picked a harder trade to try make it in and the battles u would come up against, although you have set a standard for women to do it and ain’t a snowflake who takes offence at everything if I hadn’t of seen a pic of you you could of passed for a geezer from tales you have told like crapping in a multi bag
My biggest plus for it is it’s a big outlay at the start and will keep a lot of chancers away from moving into that system
Spreads gotta do what a spreads gotta doooo!

Cool story bro but needs more dragons lol pukka jess your one success story really and get what it’s about I’m 33 so feel a bit last of a generation that has a bit of work ethic I had my nephew in with me for a few days he is 17 and bloody hell I don’t profess to be Steven hawking but he was thick as s**t and even basics seemed a problemSpreads gotta do what a spreads gotta doooo!
I went to uni, got a degree in fine art and history (snowflake alert!
Left in recession and couldn't find a decent job (though I was a lock keeper for a summer which I liked)
Moved back in with folks felt mildly depressed working a s**t job at an opticians until they sacked me for not selling enough glasses or giving a s**t.
Neighbour had a building company and needed a fourth person on a roof and I volunteered. They thought it was funny and at the end of the day they gave me a job.
Laboured with them and went to college to do plastering.
8 years later I still go do the plastering for that same building company. They are my nobheads
Think kids need more discipline at home. I've always had a laugh with my parents but when I was a kid I was never allowed to lie in, we always had chores and my parents never sat about either. I remember watching telly with my mums plants in a row in front of me polishing the leaves (wtf?!) but thinking great I get to watch telly lol!
I had my dad in the summer hoildays come in about 7:30 open curtains and say it’s a nice day don’t waste it and up we would get get ready and go out for day with mates no phones either up to all sorts and back home for dinner now can’t even let my kids out the front without worry i try to be firm but fair with my kids and I want them to hurt themselves trying stuff rather than being scared of trying things only way to learn if all that fails they will become a Plasterer and regret ever being a fcuk up at school and I shall revel in there pain when they say this hurts and I can’t do itThink kids need more discipline at home.

Even now I feel guilty if I'm sat down at the weekend, rubs off on you! And if they invite us round for tea I still clear the table, tidy the kitchen and fill their glasses like I'm 15!
I've asked a few people over the last few years about Boardfinish and they have all said it's no better than Multi. I'm definitely not paying more for something that's no better.
Well they did say that you don't need to be a plasterer to use this system, so you'll be fine.
And there product will definatley cost more per m2 so the quality will justify the cost.
Back to the drawing board with that idea then
Buying a machine time then
Waiting on one hopefully this week or next week when it becomes available
Hope it comes off mate

Forum rules we don’t talk rates mate but shhh I’d say 1.30you sayin 1.50 per m then?
