Advice For Gaining Work

[Squeak and Bubbles]

vat is 77k

Yeah. I will split it into two Business, and put one business into my wife's name. I have another business www.bubblescarpetcleanersleeds.co.uk I would just change the name to bubbleswindowscleanersleeds, and split the work between my two businesses. I will let my accountant deal with it all

I looked at this and was ultimately advised not to do it by my wife who is a CA and a partner of her firm. HMRC is toughening up on this sort of stuff and the water could get a bit murky. Here is an article I found closely relating to this...

Why pit it in your wife's name, just put it in yours. There 2 still two different company's. So long as you dont make 77k per year from both you should be okay?

Have I got that right?

what? why cant you say try and get a woman canvasser?

 

[Squeak and Bubbles]

Think this might work better... 100% yes sign me up...lol

 

[laddergarder]

If you're going to employ someone, then you have to give equal consideration to any applicant regardless of sex. If you don't you are discriminating against male applicants.

Surely you get that?

 

[Davidburnleyservices]

I just think women have a better chance off Getting work

 

[laddergarder]

I am not really bothered either way here, so don't take my point too serious here, and I am not saying that it doesn't happen, but technically, that is discrimination, you can consider how well the deal with people, there manor, there enthusiasm, but not their race, their sex, or their sexual orientation.

 

[harunh]

i think women have a better chance cos if their sexy..,. theirs more chance a man who opens the door will think oh yeh lets just get a window cleaner cos shes nice /emoticons/wink.png
