ok point taken but they are facts!!!, not opinions and thoughts.
i walked into a window cleaning job 10 years ago on the same wage as the rest with no Q's and previous training try doing that with a real trade.
it is a way of exploiting people and gaining cheap labour nothing more, regardless of what you all say.
you are all living on a far distant planet if you think this is a trade and you are imagining yourselves to be something you are not. non of you could answer the points made.
you are looking at it from an employers point of view only. think of the poor chap that has to go to an interview one day and says he did an apprenticeship in window cleaning, LOL is the response.
it also means that non of you lot are time served either unless you have undertaken the same training under a qualified certified mentor.
bunch of jokers....
