Sounds like the Client got just what they payed for. Maybe they will learn from this what you all ready know. I believe your pricing strategy of going low with your bids may have a chance to bite you in the arse if your not careful. Other pricing suggestions posted here maybe in combination will better fine tune future bids. Remember "Like trees some clients need more training than others". Good Hunting. elg

Usually here in the states in a residential neighborhood loud noise or equipment work ends around 9:00 PM. You acted properly by asking the neighbor how much longer they would be working and even though they did stop later than they said they would the point is they did stop. If it had been any later I would have had another visit by the time One hour had passed, "unarmed" and ask again when they thought they would be done. If they told you to do something that you would not normally do to your self I would have than contacted the police. There is only so much you can do untill the police become involved, researching any noise ordinance in advance of calling the police just so you are prepared for a visit would also help defuse the situation a great deal. Good Hunting. elg

Rupe we are obliged to wear proper wear, other than stupid videos appearing on YouTube showing DIY red neck and the like showing what can happen to a "genetics gone wild". segment of the population. I guess we are better for working in the heat since it is with us most of the year. FYI We to have sudden changes in the weather from Spring to Summer and Fall to winter, We don't really have an Autum due to bad behavior. Florida joke. Stay Cool. elg

So let me see if I can figure out this hot weather thing?, I would kill nearly anyone for a working temp. of 30 C all summer long. When I wake up in the Morning it can already be 30 C and it feels fine by me when it get's to be 35 to 38 C than it is starting to get warm. As long as we pace ourselfs we can still work the balance of the day. Stay cool, we do! elg

Here in the states it varies. Check with your local goverment regarding any noise laws. I can say for comericial locations no after hours restrictions for home owner locations a whole nother can of worms! elg

It is not a matter of which sex to employ the real and only question is who do I employ to get the work done to make myself money. Male or Female it does not and should not matter. As long as they can keep up with me that will be my standard. If they can do more work better or faster than their pay matches their skill/ability. Don't get caught up with all the touchy feelly questions, it is a waste of time and money. Remember you work for yourself and any one else works for you. Good Hunting. elg

What to do after cheques get cancelled
easy-lift guy replied to jaime bray's topic in Business Management
Here in the states various means of payment previously described already exist. IMO I do not beleieve the the day of the check is soon over or even cash mainly due to tech.not being able to have a plan B when a terminal go's down and stores would not be able to complete ones transaction. Usually if my clients know my fee for services in advance they ask for my terms and when the job is done I get paid. My clients know that up front and it is also printed on my job est. and work orders. If anyone tries any funny business I refer them to Guido in collections and he arranges a meeting with my gator named Frank. elg -

Means and Methods of Protecting Your Kit from Theft
easy-lift guy replied to easy-lift guy's topic in Stolen Equipment
Your insurance will only be as good as the number of claims you have against your policy. Sooner rather than later your policy will become so expensive you will either not be able to afford it or your policy will not be reissued with any carrier. I do not believe it to be an emotional issue when it comes to protecting ones kit rather a matter of my property being stolen, it my property, not the theifs. Read the thread, it may and more than likely save your kit from the theifs in the first place! elg -

David, I sure would like to spend some time with you at the range!. Thanks elg -
Should of read my thread on means and methods of protecting you kit from theft. Completly preventable. Never leave anything for someone to steal. There are always people looking for an easy mark. Although it is a shame that your kit was stolen, out of hundreds of post of stolen kit I researched for my thread your post is not only not unique but very common. Read my thread and take the information to heart. elg

looks like extensive soil compaction, maybe some minor borer damage to trunk. These trees are really tough other than a lighting strike or serious damage to root system could kill one of these bad boys off. I have one growing next door tomy home and the Bald eagles and Great Horned Owls love the height. elg

I believe it may be for Census purposes, esp. with the L/L. elg
