Title: first day wfp
Post by: daz1977 on September 10, 2009, 12:39:23 pm
started wfp today decided to take the plung and sod off trad,  quite a eventful day, decided to do houses that i usually do trad on, most custy wasnt bothered what system i used as long as they was clean, kept catching my hose on things like walls and grass lol  am getting use to walking around things now ie cars and walls instead of just taking short cuts and got the hose, was having a great day till i caught my fingers in the side door and cut all my fingers open,  i have never been in so much pain lol,  hope to moz is better

any one else had a worse first day?

It'll all get better Daz. It's a bit like riding a bike. Oh except for the hose snagging on every bloody thing. That never gets any better  ;D

Why have you invested in a 600 litre van mount and your simply using a backpack?

I started my business a couple of years ago as  Pressure washing/Graffiti removal and have started cleaning windows this year. Backpack as parking is terrible and most of my customers are very close together.

So the tank was a requirement for the other parts of your business?
