Always far too hungover to even think about working on a sunday.

A lot of houses are not accessable during the week because everyone is at work. So for me Saturday and Sunday morning are prime time. Good priced work, get round quick and finish. My youngest son "helps" in exchange for a bit of extra pocket money.

Not every week though. I prefer to go shooting

Ive found that your customers will just get used to whatever you decide to do.  They get used to the damm blasting reach and smear machine because we tell them to so having their windows spotted on the sabbath should be no sweat!!

Its no secret that you can talk your customers into keeping you on even if you use a system that they would rather you didnt! As window cleaners we have the rare position in business of having a personal relationship with our customers and that is why we retain them.  The truth is they would rather not have their house soaked with water, their plants damaged by your hoses and their windows covered in tiny spots but they don't want to hurt your feelings!!!! So they hand over there cash and stay loyal and thats one of the many reasons ats such a unique business! What you reckon?

monday lad who works for me phones in sick for week on my own then. tuesday van booked in for tank install and cant delay it cos next install time not for weeks.  today van breaks down so spend day trying to get it fixed in time for next day today. tomorrow who cares  ;D cos still not workin sunday. the morale of this story is now matter how busy you are or how bad/good  the week has been,we all need to chill out at least 1 day a week cos tomorrow is another day ;D ;D
