Why am I in window cleaning - ILL TELL YOU
« on: July 06, 2011, 06:17:50 pm »
Because of the amazing large stately homes where its quality over price!
Working today for my self, not taking orders from anyone!
Working in the sunshine when others are inside sat getting unfit on a computer!
£365 for 2 people 8.30 till 12.30, I ate my sandwiches down by their lake and fed the swans my crusts!
Getting told we are doing an excellent job and getting paid well to do it makes it even better!


Bumping into old school friends and watching the look of "what happened" on their face when you tell them what you do for a living now.

Well I reckon I know where I would rather work.

It never ceases to amaze me what a conversation killer saying you are a window cleaner is

My old work colleagues think I had a breakdown or something  :D I tell them it's adding years to my life. I was sooo stressed out in my previous life, the only things I miss are the foreign work jollys and the cash. Still building the round up, still learning but will get there one day. Well out of the rat race.

Hey if thats true well done. I bet its not every day but its nice once a month etc

2 of us work  abit harder than 4 hours for them figures :)

But i have the odd day where earnings are way above the average and its very nice, in fact i have one this week :) Lovely

But if you mention stuff like that you will upset people dude :)

However 45 per hour per man is doable on some work, thats what it works out at , but like i say its not everyday you can  do that

Hello gorgeous, can I call you a mong  ;D

Mate, I picked up the biggest job Ive ever secured a couple of weeks ago. In there tomorrow and the following day, me and another fella. Two days work, just for the upstairs for two of us. Nice sizeable dometic gaff out in the sticks somewhere in the south of England. The bottom will be done once the builders are scarcer on the ground.

Was it one of those you went knocking for again? Gaby was on about this sort of idea last week. Been thinking about doing it.

Dont mean to upset anyone!  :'(

Just saying really (well more showing off I suppose!) just had a nice well paid day doing my job  :D

Yeah they are nice when they come in - but I dont get them that often. Back to the daily round though now, back to reality with a bump.  ;D
