depends on the customer, don;t opften ask for it...at least 2 or 3 each.

How's everyone feel about smokers? I don't often work with them...But in my opinon they can't be as efficient as a non smoking worker, don;t think i'd appreciate it if i was the boss.

if the customer offers i usually except, but only if i am in the mood and there is time, nice reward when finished. as far as smoking, not my thing, cant be bothered with it. not in my vehicles,not in my yard, not around me.

Never used to do tea breaks until the job was done. For me, it was mostly for practical reasons - it's quite often difficult to find somewhere to squat in small urban private gardens! And you really don't want to be halfway through a big takedown or crown reduction needing a wee...!

 

I do know of people though who will stop halfway through a takedown and ask their groundie to send up a cuppa and a lit fag...!! (There are knots for this that are not taught at college...)

I always wondered what girls did when needing a pee on the job.

Us lads just jump into the back of the van whip it out, do our business and were off.

 

As for the thread ? probably loads on both accounts (coffee and smokes) about 15 smokes and at least 4-5 coffee's.
