What one change have you made that changed the way you do things?

No your right dan but when you are standing on a site and youve been away 5 days and come back and see what the brickies have done it fills me with hope i think i got my mojo back for spreading

to be honest... you seem a hell of a lot happier

Giving less of a s**t helps with your mind set

Never really gave a s**t about much to be honest mate but i just found the constant looking for work and getting let down got on my tits probably made my anger come out on here

Sitting down on the bog pissing like a girl when mashed rather than bouncing it off the walls or falling in the bath

Don't know about a handy change, but learnt to do heads and reveals of bands without someone holding the rules(and not using pins) means doesn't take two men for coating/rubbing bands, frees up lab, until cutting above head, though smaller windows can hold it to cut myself anyway. Not massive thing, but pretty helpful I thought. Lol

This this one I usually have with me for all the Slabbering work however anytime I'm pricing, I've told him if he leaves the van to come near me and the client, I'll kill the fvuker. As soon as he opens his mouth I'd lose the job. An example of one time the fvuker didn't listen to me. I get called back to do stone work, plastering, concreting and another building work for this cple. They are all Jehovah witnesses. Their son was out helping graft with me for few days on their job and I told this fella who works with me, no f**k**g about talking about s*x,drugs,drink or any other madness. Half an hour the fvuker lasted before he opened his mouth! All I could hear was him saying to this younglad does he visit the local prossies in town, which this young lad replied no. My mate went on to tell him he should, they are 50euro, you want see this one and that one, she let's you fcuk her up the arse for an extra 20, these 2 ya can get together and fcuk each other with strapons for same amount. The poor fella didn't know where to look! I actually think he ended up getting few sessions of counseling after meeting this fella lol.

when first started up on my own i had a lad along from college on a few jobs. working for one lady, three small children. didnt have a radio so he asked if id mind him playing his music. next thing he's got rap music blaring out... ni**er this, all my bitches that...
