I have a customer who expects me around on Tuesday, but I have been under pressure from my other job (an afternoon TEFL) teacher from my boss who is telling me to improve or my job will be on the line. This has made me want to get more window cleaning clients in case I lose my job teaching English to foreigners (TEFL), but worries me cos in the morning I planned to do my window cleaning, but it seems I will need to go in earlier than I have. Well on Tuesday anyway. Do customers mind if you change your weekday to a weekend? Or ask if can come very early on that week day?
On another note, it does look like window cleaning could save me, it doesn't take long to learn and it's regular work unlike the trades where the work comes and goes. People seem very pleased with what you do and it's flexible. I am also very tall and want to do traditional on only bungalows- don't want to invest in waterfed yet or use ladders too much. I am just tall enough to reach the high parts of the window frames on bungalows. If it's cash in hand as well you could claim the dole until you built up enough customers as well ( but I would never do that of course).
