Same as, had a 3 day commercial job booked for today until Thursday but they called at 8 this morning saying that the building work had not finnished, so have 3 days 2 leaflet over the next few days. Why cant these people give more notice.

Phones are very quiet though at the moment for domestic work, flat out last week but strangley quiet for domestic work for the next few weeks.

Usually the same story coming up to the kids hollidays.
I live in a highly populated retirement area but I also notice a drop in work/calls just before the hollidays.
Been booked up to a couple of weeks a head over the past months but now working to each week as it comes,so a similar story here.
I have 10,000 leaflets dropped last week and only got 5 calls from them which is very poor.
