Sunday Hours.

[Dean Lofthouse]

I should be on site for eight thirty, but then we will be at least an hour doing paperwork.

 

Bloody hell mick, not only is it a sunday, its a bank holiday sunday and a load of bull paperwork to boot, I think it should be quadruple time and Rich should be paid quadruple time also.

Feck off Dean, are you trying to skint me out.........I,m slowly getting the picture......Lets wind Mick up.

I reckon you probably charge twice what I do Mick, so your time and a half is probably top dollar any way!!

For what it's worth.. I work all week, and some evenings, and then work saturday and sunday if needed, and bank hollidays if needed, and at night if needed, with all the bull paperwork and method statements and contract checklists and pullava that goes with it.... because I find it's best to take the rough with the smooth.

I've never charged more for weekend or evening work and just like to offer my customers and clients a bloody good service.

However.... emergency call out 100 miles away in the middle of the night.. now thats different

Sure there isn't the word "charity" in your business name somewhere Highland ?

 

At the end of the day, this job knackers your body and I aint knacking my body for peanuts or just to please. I've had to pump myself full of pain killers to get to todays job after ripping a muscle under my shoulder blade yesterday, I ended up on the kitchen floor last night when it went into spasm (no sexual inuendos please)

 

My customers get very good value for money and I have only ever had one disatisfied customer, but that's only because he bartered the price after I had agreed a price and finished the job.

I see your point there Dean... I don't generally suffer with the work too much but at my age I shouldn't do... however, i've just realised from your post that the work will take it's toll on my body one day - maybe working hard now could knacker me for later.

 

Just booked in a subbie job for tomorrow so looking forward to that, love subbing out, dont have to worry about anything, just turn up, do the business and sod off.

 

Might even get Sunday off this week! woohoo!

You work too hard mate.

 

At least I am lazy enough for the both of us

You're right, and it screws everything up in the long run.... life, relationships, body, mind, everything.

 

I'm a sucker though... I hate turning work away and practically never turn down a job so you end up working weekends and evenings just to keep everyone happy.
