How on earth does the owner administer such an opperation.
What I mean is, how does he know what operator has taken what? That chav that measured up and tried to take £167.00 from the old dear. He could have gone back to base and said "No sorry, she chucked me off the job without paying". He could have got her to make out the cheque into his name and banked it without them knowning.

At Enterprise the technicians get paid at the end of the week. Customer can pay over phone with credit/debit card (via someone back at the office), in cash or by cheque. The technicians also carry receipts that they have to get signed. They are also phoned by someone at the office every 2 hours to check where they are. A technician wouldn't be able to stitch the company up unless the customer was in on it.
They don't have a list of appointments given to them. They start off with one first thing in the morning and then phone in when they finish each job and are then given another job to go to.
Ok, so I work for enterprise, for example. I get a call to see a customer in Essex. I manage to convince the customer to go for £400 as a pose to £8.99.
I take the £400 cash or cheque made out to me, thank the customer then leave the house. In the van I make out an invoice for £8.99 and do a signature for the customer. When passing a cash point I take out the £8.99 so they can clear the invoice.
Not only that but I also get 40% relief of the £8.99 I had to withdraw (they give you 40% com on takings)
This gives me a total private taking of £394.61 and the benifit of paying for no vehicle, no tax, no repairs, no fuel, no insurance, no chems, no insurance, no expensive marketing.
Where do I apply?
Explain that one.
