how old do kids have to be to come out and work with you ???
my lad is 15 in april and big for his age,so physically he could do it
if i get the tank fitted in time i could have a two man set up working in time for summer
is there any legal implications for this  ??? i would really like to give him a chance to earn some cash and to instill a bit of work ethic into him,also it would take some of the sting out of funding the next guitar ::)

When my son was 15 he helped me out and was included on the insurance. May even work for kids younger than that.

You need to go to his school and ask for a permit for him to work, the insurance companies are OK with this and as long as you are not asking him to climb ladders or do other precarious things they accept it as work experience

Embarrassed? Never
My mates think I got the best job in the world.
 
Window cleaning is not the best job ever for me but I love the fact I am self employ and can choose what hours I want to work.

It was not easy to get the works to begin with but it was worthwhile to get where I am now and I am proud of myself.

We should never be embarrassed of what we do. A friend of my girlfriend ask her was she embarrassed about me being a window cleaner for living as I can't be making a very good money just by cleaning window.
My Girlfriend No I not embarrassed. how much do your boyfriend make an hour? friendAbout £14  something like that. My Girlfriend he make roughly £40 to £60 an hour depend on the weather and what houses he got to cleaned. friend :o
