I was about 17/18 and working for someone. Haha i shudder now, only got paid £20 for slaving all day but it was back in the 90's.
Then for one day I helped another chap. He wanted someone to work his round for £20 a day, i was young and so i did. But only for a day! Its going back to a time period where it was between £3 - £5 a house but this dude was charging £1 - £1:50 per house and 2 of them were inside and out as well. At end of the day I made little over £20 and told the guy to vet someone else!!
Whereas the firat chap I worked for, when I finished in sales i asked him if hes still got the rounds and I started back up in 2002 officially in 2003. Rented round for 5mnths and then bought it of him. 2 yrs later I had better prices than what they initially was and also doubled the round. The beginings of my empire ☺
