How long have you been a window-cleaner.

Detail your length of time in the job, how long have you been wfp and ALSO how long have you been trad.


Oh, for me:

Trad 10 years.

WFP 1 week.

update............
i have just been looking at some previous posts that i have made over the years and came across this one that i posted march 23rd 2005
.......................................
Having now done a few weeks using WFP I am somewhat surprised that apart from 1 customer (who would not even give it a chance) I have had no negative feedback, on the contrary  most of my customers are very interested on how it works and are pleased to see I’m off the ladder and the others don’t give a monkeys as long as the windows are cleaned. I really thought that I would have a job convincing my customers that WFP is the future but this has not been the case, infact today I picked up 2 new customers whilst using WFP. For me there is no way I’m going back to ladder work!
............................
so therefore if been using wfp nearly 3 years now
