-
Just got back in...tipping it down and bouncing off the road...arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggghhh
I just want to work...my slush fund is taking a right hammering....am going to seriously review my winter work approach.
Another day at home...this is just doing my nut in!!!!
-
slush fund is for xmas off ...take a blooming break ;D
-
Not meant to be working till the 4th jan, but is driving me nuts doing no work, there is only so much eating, drinking, shopping someone can do. It is like fighting an addiction not working at all, I may do a commercial job somewhen before to break up the holiday. Worst part is have loads of work that can be done, just never had a holiday over christmas before and god it feels weird
-
allways had hols at xmas and gone back new year;
best way for me but it takes some geting back into a work mode'
i would work if i had any shops or schools to do.
regards

Get your prices right from the start and you can have Christmas week off every year. ;D

I'm having just the official bank holidays off myself, though I'm not doing any domestic stuff until after I start back properly on the 4th of January.
Much of my work is commercial so if the shops and the like are open then I'm working as normal anyway...
I've never bothered working between Christmas eve and New Years Day on domestics, always planned for it and allowed for it so it has never been an issue for me.
But if my situation was such that I really needed to work then I would do residential stuff without a qualm, any comments from customers would have me pointing out to them that aside from the official bank holidays the other days are just normal working days.
The bloody awful weather though is another issue altogether mind...
It doesn't make any difference where the commercial work is concerned but unless it is hammering down with rain or blowing a real gale then residential work will also be undertaken...
I think it is kind of a grey area, we all have differing views on where we will draw the line with regards to working in adverse weather conditions.

I will have to remember that one ::), is a bit like people saying you missed a bit ;D
-
I`m full of a cold, so no more work this week.....or year....or decade ::).
-
I did some commercial jobs from about 6.30 till 9. Then started on domestics from about 9.30 till 2. Then the rain just got heavier so I wimped out and cleaned the chip shop (under cover) then finished about 1.30. Considering the conditions, that I had a fair bit of driving to do, and that some of the work I did today wasn't particularly well priced stuff, I reckon I did OK.
-
we have worked Mon Tue and today..picked up some new custys along the way so iam glad i did it now.
also caught up just about with what i lost just before xmas so happy days off now until the 4th :)
-
For the first time since I started 6 years ago I have worked between Christmas and New Year.
We lost the whole week before Christmas and next week looks pants so don’t want to risk getting to far behind going into Jan.
I worked 7 hours today and loved every minute of it, I am looking forward to tomorrow.
I have set a target to double the size of my company by Christmas 2010 so intend starting the New Year with enthusiasm and continuing till it’s done, Then 2011 doing it again.
-
I am working everyday including sunday, until the 4 January 2010 then no more work until Febuary 2010 8)
-
