Hi guys.. i'm kinda looking at my options and was wondering if there is anything else like WC that is self employed on a flexible basis that anyone can think of?
Spotless water has closed the filling station in my area. That's left me in a pickle. Their next nearest filling point is 35 mins away and costs me a tenner in petrol each time. I have 6 barrels plus the back pack and the car is an auto so it's thirsty just going to fill up (plus health woes means the longer i drive the more physical pain i suffer). That and only just breaking even with the extra fuel on top is possibly going to finish me. I've also had a few other setbacks just lately along with custys messing about.. - another cancellation on the doorstep on Tuesday - literally had the text the night before (and an earlier reminder on saturday) and then claimed they'd forgotten i was coming. Now the missus also expects me not only to fit around her and our son but also her sister, her brother and other things that have become problematic since the sister was hospitalised. There's been other stuff too...
Anyway enough of my moaning, i need to re-evaluate my position as despite WC being far easier going than most jobs it seems stacked against me at the moment. Any ideas for other self employed avenues similar to window cleaning? - own hours, own rates, no qualifications etc.. i know it's probably a daft question seeing as we've all turned to WC lol but i thought i'd ask..
cheers,
Tango
(and no.. this doesn't mean i'm definitely giving up on WC, i'm just looking at options - no need to crack open the booze and celebrate just yet lol)
