lol...funny how 'sitting on my arse' at 2pm means I hadnt been working. Thats the joy of working for yourself.

 

If you can get a 'QUALIFIED TRADESMAN' to work for £60 then fairplay to you. I feel sorry for the poor sod thats being taken advantage of though.

As I said, if they prove themselves to be worthy, I re employ and pay the correct going rate. To many chancers around that are fleecing me even when I pay £60.00.

I am contacted EVERY week by people from here looking for work, only today someone has offered their services for £50 per day. I employ people as/when I am able and re-employ those who come up to standard and then pay them the correct going rate.

A sparky wanted that to fit one light fitting.:o

As I said (again), if they prove themselves to be worthy, I re employ and pay the correct going rate. To many chancers around that are fleecing me even when I pay £60.00.
