Finish 23rd and I’ll do a school clean which is half a day on Friday 2nd, I’m usually ready to get back to it by then anyway tbh.

I just keep going, only doing 7:30am-11am these days. Will take off a few days close to Xmas anyway.

Your average day is only 3.5 hours long?

Always have done, since I started in 2008. Usually do a round or two between Xmas and new year, all my work is monthly, so each week there is work due, I tend to  stick to the routine unless we’re away on holiday…

Yep, that’s the average now, latest midday. This week haven’t been later than 11am.

Leave the house at 7:15am. Or earlier on commercial.

My round is now so well refined, even my domestic work requires less than 4 hours to hit a good wage. I  could earn more, but I’m very happy where I’m at, my work like balance is perfect now.

Would also add, I work fast, I’m very efficient and I don’t mess about. I get it done and get home.
