So Many Vans Around Now

That's what happens when work is tight as everyone is after the same profitable streets /emoticons/biggrin.png

 
haha that one musta been funny, makes me wonder sometimes with that many why they don't get there heads together.
I bumped in to 2 different guys today in the morning cleaning windows, both were friendly tho. Un-licenced but friendly lol.

 
i wouldnt personally, but thats just how i am i guess, i choose to work inline with the law but if others dont thats their call, i dont think its up to me to grass them up, they probably have families and bills to pay too

You mean beer to drink, pubs to visit, drugs to buy

 
lol, some are like that, but not all, most are generally otherwise decent people, i know a few that aint registered self employed because they only do it part time on the side from their other job, and a lot that dont have insurance, but there normal people, with families, bills etc. its up to them basically and i wouldnt feel right grassing someone up for no reason, or just so i could nick a few of there customers, its underhand and unnecessary imo.

Yer I hear you but what if he was working on a house next to you, had an accident that managed to injury you and put you out of work for 3 months, how you Gona pay the bills while ou not earning, u can't claim from his insurers as he has no insurance and you could take him to small claims court but that will takes ages and you'd be recovered by then.

I'm not saying you should, I wouldn't unless I thought they were a risk, but I'm just saying it could happen

Whats the chances of that though cns, I'd rather wait till he's gone than grass him up. Like others have said times are hard and some people are just trying to feed their kids working a second job and personally I commend em for pulling their finger out. (but not doley's and druggies obviously)

Very true mate, ye I probs would grass em in tbh unless I though they were a danger to them or someone else

True atleast ther doin summit

 
So are you going to say anything about them working Un-licenced?
Just now, no. Im compiling a list on names atm. Why report one person ever now and again? Its pointless. Its like the police busting ''drug lords'' when one gets busted, there always someone there to take his place,

I would rather hand a list of 5-10 window cleaners (that work the same areas as me) all at once. Then it may benefit me.

 
so you would rather grass up 5-10 window cleaners, possibly put them out of business and all on the dole claiming your tax, just so you might pick up a couple of their customers? rather you then me buddy, theirs plenty of glass out there and id rather be a decent person and concentrate on my own business rather then get involved in other peoples.

just my opinion mind
