got one thanks but it involves working boxing day thats all. ask shop workers or people in service stations if they like working over xmas none of us want to, i bet you would moan if you were ill and the nurses refused to treat you cos its the festive season, you get a life mate there are some important clients to keep happy and if it means 2 hours work so be it

Aztec,
I agree with you and I dont.
1. Yes people need to work like Doctors, nurses, service stations hotels etc
2. HAVING CLEAN WINDOWS IS BY NO WAY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!
Is having clean windows a matter of life or death??? NO!
Is having a surgeon opporating on someone on xmas day or boxing day important? YES!
SIMPLE REALLY

i wouldve said ok...but its 3 x the amount

>:(sad cleaning windows boxing day

If I had a customer of long standing and they expected their cleaning to be done week in week out and it so happened that it fell on Christmas morning never mind boxing day - I would do it because it was expected.
Aztec hasn't said hes going to be loving it but I admire his commitment and dedication.
Maybe he has tried to re jig it and has spoken to the customer and they want it done then.
Aztec don't listen to them some people will build businesses and there will be a few who will build empires.
You know what you've got to do

If it was a commercial job then I think I would. But if it was domestic I would politely explain to the customer that Boxing Day was family time and even more politely that he/she should get a life!
Anyway did a quick 3 this morning and now that's me done until 7th Jan 2008 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

to be honest im with aztec......why do town centre shops get cleaned on a Monday morning..
answer get rid of the puke and kebabs that the punters have thrown all over them at the weekend.....therefore seen as xmas eve is one of the busiest nights out i would of thought many more shop managers would be insisting on there windows cleaned in preparation for the sales!!

also what about lads that may be jetting out for a fortnight in the sun on the 27th or 28th....im sure they would be wanting to complete their contract schedule on boxing day if it needed doing so working boxing day is not ideal but sometimes necessary......... merry Christmas and adios!
