Woody, I've been cleaning windows for a few years now, and that's never happened to me; so don't let this auld witch dishearten you (which she doesn't seem to have done).

You'll find you'll get a high rate of bad customers when you first start off, because you end up with the rejects that other window cleaners have binned.

And if you don't feel like you've had a good kicking at the end of your first day, you haven't worked hard enough.

Yea don't worry about it mate. I get it all the time

[woody1]

Apologies; I got the wrong end of the stick.  I thought you meant 'first day window cleaning', and you meant 'first day WFP'.

i remember my first day!ironically it was the same work ive completed today!i worked 9am- 5pm today and took an hour for dinner.the first day wfp it took me until 8pm to do the same work!3 HOURS LONGER!! : : :.


i remember thinking this was a mistake a few times during the day!i mainly just did the tops wfp and tradded bottoms.now its more like 80% WFP/20% TRAD.

IT TAKES A FEW MONTHS TO GET INTO YOUR STRIDE!!


good luck and best wishes woody

and if dazmond after 16yrs trad
as mastered it just goes to show
iv 26yrs trad wc ing under my belt

now done with pole , scrub rinse scrub rinse
n if in doubt rinse sum more it takes time
to achieve gr8 results, some custys even ones
youve done for years will moan, but time my friend
those you know you can talk around do
but you will be all for going back to trad
believe u me , but keep at it
the frames being sparkling will win it over
just make sure yr waters right !!!!
