Due to osteoporosis and severe arthritis im looking for a decent 25ft lightweight carbon poles any suggestions please 🙏

How long have you been diagnosed with chronic arthritis and how long do you think you can continue working in this sector? 
At what point will you consider reducing your work load and apply for benefits from the state as health is important .

 Well if you said they’d been run over from the start 


Truthfully though, there’s a procedures you need to follow. Give him a verbal or written warning.

If a member of staff is abusing or neglecting their equipment that’s one thing; improperly trained is another. Don’t ever expect a member of staff to treat their equipment how you as the owner treats and views that equipment.

As for deducting money from their wages, that’s illegal. That’s worse than neglecting equipment. If that happened to me when I was employed you’d be dragged over the coals.

Like I said, you’re assuming.

Having 5 staff and never having had what this guy is experiencing no it’s not assumption it’s a fact , my staff generally use slx poles and they are replaced after around 3 years of use , yes get an odd issue but it’s rare in that 3 year period that anything is replaced on the pole , get the odd  broken lever and over the years a couple of section one on the pole due to careless closing of stiff windows and that’s it if the poles are lucky they might get the tape replaced once a year , and that’s using theses poles 6-8 hours a day 5 days a week ,so what the op is experiencing is not normal

Checked van tyre pressures and condition(good)
WD40 on ladder clamps/padlock
Screwed some new hooks in shed/general tidy up
Run van engine for 30 mins to prevent flat battery (I've not driven it for 11 days)
Filled up a container with ice melt grit for some customers driveways if it's icy in the new year.
Cleaned my 2 main 35cm brushes

Garage now clear of junk ready for new roller door getting fitted this friday. Skip got collected yesterday.
