oh the joys of the 'big swap over'

when everyone told me i would hate it at first and want to pack up the wfp kit - i thought na ill love it! but they were right.

but

trust me give it a few more months and you will wonder how you would manage without it!

Be more assertive mate.
Tell them this is the way it is now due to H&S, working at heights regulations.

wfp is like this mate, some people decide to go back to ladders cos they were used to it, for example if you have a van mount you may find your self walking back and forth unhooking your hose under pots, tyres, all sorts, it will anoy you, cos before it was ladder in hand walk place ladder clean,


then you get cancelations.just keep cool, replace lost work and stick with it , said well below just give it time

the best days are when you manage to get round your work without seeing a customer or as few as possible - I love those (rare) days.

keep going, can p you off at first, but when you get used to it im sure youll find it better than ladders on most of your work, its not without its problems, but overall its much better, some customers still wont like it no matter how many times you explain it to them, be prepared to lose a few but you normallly pick some more up

At the end of my first week I would have happily chucked my gear over a hedge. After that it gets better.
