Done my first saturday in 4 months today.Already thinking about working every dry saturday and taking a day off in the week.Im still building  my round,recently expanded in to a lot of new areas and this seems a perfect way to build it at a faster rate.

Shame we cannot do sat/sunday 7 days a week, but then I would fall off my pole, maybe have two other days off instead.

i try and get my work done mon-fri now as i like the weekends off but i tend to work more of them in winter when im behind.i dont particularly like working saturdays that much as i like to chill with family and friends.its a good idea to work them if your building up your work though.


regards

it would be enjoyable at first,maybe just the 1 or 2 houses, but im absolutely sure that before long you will be slogging away with a full Saturday and for what ?

Saturdays are more relaxed and I almost enjoy them. However, the main motivation is to do customers who are not around during the week. This gives me an edge over the rest of the window cleaners.
