Colin
Why does he need more than 10, if he averages out at £150 per Job thats £1500 per week, not a bads weeks pay really.
2 Jobs a day finnished by 3, is that not what we want from running our own businesses. Make the business work for you, not you for it.
Thats my aim, if I can get to it. good on him if thats what he gets.

Totally agree with you Neil, far too many CCs on here who are killing themselves by the sounds of it.
I very rarely do more than 10 jobs a week myself, sometimes a few more, sometimes a few less. I am financially okay, earn enough and some extra on top. Work to live not live to work.

They say hard work never killed anyone but why take the chance?

Fully booked up now to Xmas, every day, now starting the waiting list. I usually work evenings as well at this time of year but have decided to try and avoid them this year. I do have to take three days off next week to collect my new Van & TM and deliver my present TM to Newcastle.

i like to be steady through the year, i usually turn the phone off about now, fed up with customers wanting last minute work before xmas, i don't need it, i work hard in the better weather and take a rest when it is cold and damp.

Colin that is the best idea but I like to be busy all year round it makes me depressed to think other people have got my money in their pockets.
