I have a builder friend, who has always worked, flat out...... until now,
his books are empty, nothing in the pipeline at all,
he asked how i was doing , i told him so far, so good.
his reply....... "well you will be ok, people had to pay me hundreds, everyone can afford a little bit each month, and the wives will want the windows cleaned always."
Then he said something that made me post this......he said " you started with just ladders and squeegee and a bucket didnt you?..... where can i buy them from?
So , when the recession bites, and tradesmen , bank clerks, etc etc lose their jobs,
they may head our way !.....
and i was only worried , thinking i may lose an odd punter,
now its got me thinking, how many will undercut us to get wages they will be so desperate for,?
leaving us less houses to canvas, because of an influx of competition.
your thoughts please.
Gary.
