Does anyone clean domestics on bank holidays.
I don't usually but im sitting here thinking why not go to work friday as i have not nothing else on.
Its either that or the wife would want me to take her to her mothers, I would rather go to work.
Not sure if the customers will like it me turning up on a bank holiday though.

I was going to start about 10am but like you have never worked a good friday or bank holiday monday so not sure if they will like it.

never have and never will, mate of mine did it once and all it took was one comment from a custy and that was him off home :-\
-
nope
people will be home enjoying time with family etc, they dont want you cleaning windows whilst they try and light the BBQ
-
i think it should be illegal to work on bank holidays, you should be going camping with the family or summat. thats what im doing if the weather bucks up. :-\

Worked a good friday a couple of years ago as behind with work schedules (don't usually work bank hols at all). All custies were ok with it . Most were in so got paid there and then and also picked up a fair amount of new custies due to them being off work themselves. ;D
-

worked friday and had mon and tues off.
def wont be working mon,apparently the weekends going to be
a wash out...dont fancy getting wet ;D

Just do a couple extra each day for 2 weeks leading up to a BH and you have covered it :)
-
I have a 10 hour job this sunday :'(

i would consider commercial jobs on bank holiday (never got further than that though) but never domestic . i would be unhappy with a tradesman calling un announced to my house on a bank holiday so i wouldnt do it to others
G
-
Only worked if job has been booked in like plastic clean or some thing else, would never just turn up on job to clean domestic windows, can you imagine having nice family barbeque and work men turn up univited.
Do clean commercial sttuff on bank holidays llike the weekly pubs because you know they are working

never call unannounced i always let customer know night
before if they want to cancel for whatever reason they have the option :)
-
i would not work good friday, but easter monday or any other bank hol monday is fine in my book not xmas hols ;D
i worked the odd saturday started this about a year ago, had i few comments, nothing nasty.
just i didn't think you'd work on a staturday?
just reply yes sometimes i have to due to lost time with weather, lots of people work saturdays and bank hols.
what's the worst that can happen is custy says leave it,? i wouldn't start til 10.30ish though
lee. ;)
