I'm fed up of cleaning windows!
« on: November 21, 2007, 02:49:04 pm »
does anybody else feel like this sometimes?
Sometimes i wish i did something else like building or electrics. I find work so boring,(and i already use a radio). I need to vary my work somehow i think. What do you guys do?

I feel like this most of the time and think about getting a job but would not get half as much money and have to work for twice as long
I also like the freedom of being able to either work hard take it easy or have a day off
To keep the motivation up i have a series of targets like how much for the week/month or year also booking a holiday so you can countdown to when you go away i find helps purchase of a luxury item when you reach a target
At the moment i am saving for a months holiday to Canada and a new van for the new tax year you need targets or you will just wonder aimlessly through and eventually just give in
This time of year does not help though with the cold wet and dark days

Roll on summer  8)

I got an alternative. Jack it all in and find a nine til five for £120 a week. Give it 6 months and i promise ya,you'll never complain ever again about how BORING window cleaning is. Boring is lookin at ya watch and thinking..........only 7 hours til home time :( Get out there,kick ass and realise how lucky u are to have such a wonderful job  ;) Next time ya complain,i'll get the electrodes out  :)

heheh,
Yeah i know all the benifits like money, im the boss n all, but i just go through phases.
its probably down to the time of year like you said dean.

i just fancied a moan.
It would be good to make a little money on the side doing something else though, just to keep it varied. It would be good if i could sell some of my art work, but theres no money in it!
