What's the latest you guys work till on domestic houses?
I never work after 5pm as think the customers will start moaning,
Could do with working till about 6 but what will the customers reaction be? Is it fair on them to turn up after 5?

Im tagged so have to be off the stereets by 4pm.

























Seriously though I think 5pm is prob the latest however never prejudge as Tuesday I was working a road where I have 4 big big houses and had 1 to go at 4.45 so thought do it tomorrow they will be having dinner soon so went next day and bloke says what happened to you yesterday so told him I felt it was too late and he said we had money waiting for you as we were off out to see olympic torch it wouldnt have been a problem .... guess should have knocked but was knackered so prob more to do with it

I'm generally finished between 4 & 5, however if for any reason I'm running late, I'd rather carry on to finish the planned days work rather than put it on the next.
I don't see what's wrong with working later - a quick 'sorry I'm running late' may be all that's necessary.

I was relaxing/dozing in my chair at home last night when my phone rang. It was 7:17.

Lady: "Can you come and clean my windows?"
Me: " Sure. When would you like them done?"
Lady: "Now."
Me: "Now??? Er... OK"

Finished at 9:08! Lady was well pleased.

I can't understand what happens at five o'clock? you have morning until midday then afternoon follows - it is still the afternoon until it starts getting dark! then it is the evening and finally, when it is dark, it is night time. Simple as that.

That's how them continentals work - if it's daylight be out and about working and doing!

 Then you can nip to the bank during the day - meet the missus for a coffee - chat with a mate - get the shopping in - have supper instead of tea - get rid of SkyTV and all that other brain rot ... mix it up a bit work and life ... because you can because it is summer in Great Britain ... try it!
