My Missis has been doing it for years.

I keep on suggesting that she goes and finds a 'proper job', but the terms and conditions are just to good for her working with me.

She's got me over a barrel.

With all these new-fangled lightweight poles, there's no reason why women can't do this job; and as has been previously noted, customers like it.  Women are generally non-threatening, unlike some of the shaven-headed and heavily tattooed Neanderthals that you often see lugging ladders about; scraping their knuckles along the ground with their free hand.

When we're approached for a quote, people generally approach Wor Lass for some reason.

My wife's been working with me for the last 5 years. She makes a huge difference to our work. Gets on well with custies and is very exact when working. She does downs, I do ups.
