time for a sabbatical?

[doug boardley]

got asked today if I fancied going back plastering for a few months, tbh I don't relish going plastering, but it'd mean not having to hunt for tiling work in an ever decreasing work/profit area (at the moment). Got a couple of weeks to decide. Does anyone else have a "second trade" to fall back on and how far would you have to be pushed to fall back on it?

Joinery......or Doorman work......Too old in the tooth for doorwork anymore and no joinery work about either....:mad2:...

Will stick it out as i am......hopefully.....:lol:

 

[cornish_crofter]

Well, I do a bit from a lot of the trades, a bit of a cowboy really :lol:

I also have an honours degree and MSC in engineering/manufacturing related subjects, absolutely hated working in it though.

and I've got C&G 2381 and 2391 on the electrical side

...so no I'd be a bit stuck really :smilewinkgrin:

Hopefully things will pick up Doug.As for a second trade for me it would be the same as the first.

 

[doug boardley]

still got about a month's work ahead of me, so I'll see if owt else comes in during next couple of weeks.It is the quietest my diary has ever been tho'!

I'm the same Doug but have a good few jobs with the tiling but if I did'nt I would be plastering full time just for the money and keep my eye out for the tiling. Maybe a chance of more contacts for the tiling.

Never had more than a months work in but it's picking up Doug. But works work, I do anything for money to feed the family.
Best of luck Doug
