Hi

I might get slated for saying this but don't you get the feeling that their is alot of people on here at the moments that just go from post to post baning their chest tring to fight their way to being forum top dog  :( :(

i have also noticed that some of the older members now don't bother posting at all due to the fact that they will just get put down by new members  ???

Regards Paul

You could have a point Paul

I think it might be down to the fact that when
Folk are on here the prob on face book at the
same time, and may be forget that the 2 sites are
Very different, I'm probley guilty of this myself!
But I don't like the idea of older forum members not
 posting Because of this reason.

I post a great deal less than I used to because of the number of plonkers on here who will resort to telling you you're an idiot.


Tell people you're trying to grow and they'll tell you you're a Walter Mitty/Alan Sugar wannabe.

Tell people you're happy with your business the size it is and you'll be told you're mad.

Tell people you're trying to make life easier with good/new equipment and you'll be told you're gay, as real men make it hard for themselves.

Tell people ways to speed things up without any extra effort and you'll be told your priorities are wrong.

Discuss earnings/prices and you'll be told either you're lying about how high they are or you're stupid for undercharging.



So, people with ideas go quiet and we're left with less benefit from the forum.

i dont neccessarily come on here for info these days its more to have a laugh
with or at ;Dothers who work in the same industry.i work on my own and at times
i find it isolating so its good to come on here and touch base.

i must admit the one thing i miss vfrom a conventional work place is the
banter and squabbling you get. the famly and friends arent really inerested in what i do
so this forum amongst others ticks the boxes for me.

if i learn something along the way that helps..well thats a bonus :)

I don't post much on here anymore because I find the interlectual aptitude of those who post to far below my own extreme interlectual abilities.

Just because I grace you all with my esteemed interlectual outpouring from time to time don't mean I'm just a common window cleaner.



ps Just for the record, I start at 10am prompt, I clean 50+ houses a day, 7 days a week, and they're all priced between £20 and £50. Then in the afternoon I pursue my hobbies. Brain surgery and butterfly collecting.

Nice one, Dean and Stu  ;D.
Home made pizza, it is. I'll post some pics later, if I get the chance. My life is so busy, though.
So busy that I find it hard to find the time to tell you lot, that I'm so busy and what I'm having for tea.
But you know me, lol.

It's a shame if older members don't come on here anymore. When I set out on my own I worked all day then had my kids in the evenings when my wife worked so I never saw her from sunday night until friday evening. This forum gave me chance to speak to people about more interesting things than what I could have for tea or what was on the telly and every evening I learnt something I could try the next day.

What do you expect from a forum full of low skill manual window cleaners who all think they are the next answer to Alan Sugar? Play school?

I really resent that comment.

I have a city and guilds part 1 in something or the other. I'm a skilled worker. It says so on my leaflet so it must be true plus I have my certificate to prove it.

Anyway, I bet I clean more houses than you each day and the good thing about this forum, which is why I post so often, is I can come on here and tell the truth and tell it like it is.
