carrying wfp spares
« on: August 16, 2005, 07:48:16 pm »
Does anyone carry spare parts with them ie hose connectors,hose repair joins,even  hoses or pole parts? because lets face it they can take some battering and the last thing we want is to be left in the middle of a job with broken parts,i carry hose connectors,joins and a spare brush and an extra length of hose standard and mini sizes.

  I have a bag full of hoselok connectors as I use the cheapies from the pound shop, but have never had one break or leak in 5 months. I am seriously considering a spare pump though.

i dont carry any spares because if something breaks it is a good exuse to have a day off .
and i also pray for for rain every day so i can go home .
god i hate my job.
what else is self employment for .
even when you get home you dont stop working ?doyou?.
dont believe me ,then what you doing on here?

remember enough work is too much
and to much work is more than enough.

just earn what you need .dont get to greedy like me ,you will only hate it .there wont be enough time for hangovers.
i hate my job .i hate it .i hate it .i hate it .i do you know .
i was looking forward to wfp ,but i am so disillusioned by it all ,what with all them spots an all.
so my advice is do not i repeat DO NOT CARRY SPARES !!!!!.
just chill ,relax and have a nice day off .
you will only regret it if you dont .
i only became a window cleaner so i could have loads of days off and still go home early ,oh yes dont forget the lie ins you are going to need them .
its easy money aint it ,but dont you just hate it .
but if i can give you one bit of advice DO NOT CARRY SPARES!!!.
get a life instead.
chill chill chill chill.
god i hate that cat ,he`s so funny he cracks me up.
