Even with that winter
« on: March 27, 2010, 09:36:08 am »
Having not worked for nearly a month in that cold snap, I'm well over two grand up on last year already  :o
How is everyone else - even, down or up?

didnt work last xmas, so am up on last year, lol   i have noticed that there seems to be a shift in people attitude to jobs, from when i first joined.  the pricing seems to be getting better and a lot of crap jobs are being dropped

About £1270 up give or take a pound.
I'm quite surprised really.

well last year i lost over 10 weeks due to my hernia op ( and time off )

this tax year i lost 10 K of commerical work AND 6 weeks off after car accident and 5 weeks off over christmas and the snow / ice etc

i would think i might be a slight bit down , no worries though, easy come easy go , i might get a disney holiday in late this year anyways

Are we counting from Jan 1st to now or is this thread a measure of income compared to last year as we're just about at the end of the tax year?

My count was from October 1 (my accounting year).  Even from Jan 1 I'm about £950 up though.

My year will end at close of play next thursday (March to March but I end on the last day of a working week.)

At this exact point I am £1300 up on turnover and weather permitting should be about £2000 up.
It's a game of three halves!
