I wouldn't have the neck to turn up on a sunday. Don't you think it smacks a bit of desperation? Such a pain in the jacksey all this frost and stuff.
Squirrel is awesome - ha ha ha

Ron,
Sorry, mate; the pic wasn't much help.
I'd love to work Sunday, but this is what would happen. I'd think about it, mull it over and when Sunday came, I wouldn't work. I know what I'm like.
But if you've got the determination to do it, do it. Many, if not most, of my customers, particularly the elderly ones really like to have their windows cleaned prior to Christmas; some of the younger ones too.
So if you want to do it, do it.

Made me laugh tho ;D and with 3 vans and 4 men all sat doing nothing i,ll be giving it a good go.

I can`t see a problem with working Sunday. I don`t think it smacks of desperation, you`re providing a service. And there`s been some pretty desperate posts on here anyway.
It won`t suit all customers but you`re unlikely to do that all the time and you could try to work it out with them.
Whether I do it or not, I`m not sure.

I think i,ll just knock and say due to the recent weather we"ve had we are having to work when we can if you dont want us to clean your windows today, see you next year and i,ll wish them a merry Christmas,

In context though I've only got the missus and 3 kids to maintain (no mean feat either), but if you've got vans and men sat idle then I'd probably be getting them head torches and ear muffs to work nights AND sundays. I just hope to get enough done Thursday/Friday to keep the large wolf from the small door.

Practice what you preach then ;D.
Ego? Cognitive dissonance?

errrr NO

errrr Yes ;)

Definitely working Sunday. Can't moan about being short of funds/not getting to people and then not working a Sunday this close to Christmas. As long as you don't start at 8 can't see why anyone should object. It's either that or dirty windows for crimbo ;D
-
I worked last Sunday and will work again this Sunday. Start about 10.30, most people do not mind these days as it is just like a normal day. I.e shops are are open and pubs open all day.
-
i worked last saterday & sunday got a full days in no problems evreyone was happy to see me and got a few tips too
-
I worked last Sunday on one of my larger domestics (by arrangement) and would work this Sunday too if I had to, but so far Ive managed to get a good week in.
I would go for it Ronaldo ;D
-
Think I may go Sunday too because next week the snow and freezing temps are back.
