Hi Guys,
I just wanted to apologise for my negative posts yesterday. As you all know, its been a very hard few months with the weather; and I guess I just needed to vent out my frustrations of this job. I am not looking for sympathy, and I know we all have to deal with the weather and battle with our motivation; and i'm not unique with regards to that. And for those who are considering going into window cleaning to improve their working lives, who have been working min wage in a factory, or working for some a-hole of a boss; i wish you all the best; go out there and do it.
I have been window cleaning for 20 years nearly; I have had both good times in window cleaning, and bad, multiple times over. I have had affluence, and poverty, multiple times over, but one thing I have always done, and that's pick myself up and get going again. I have a moan. I have a groan, and then I get on to own.
I have worked so hard to establish a great window cleaning business that provides me with the income I need to enjoy life, and I need to focus on the good things my job brings. I am able to do things like hobbies, spend time with kids, go on holidays, and enjoy my motorcycling. Some of you know that I was involved in a motorcycle accident back in July when I had to take a month off work due to a broken glenoid, well I am still in a bit of pain with the shoulder whilst working; and that also has been making me a bit grumpy and feeling sorry for myself, especially with this weather. Not ,many jobs you can start at 9 am, be home by 4pm and have cleared well over most people earn in a week for the day, and I guess I have just forgotten just how much freedom financially and time wise this job brings.
I am still looking at furthering my studies in Law, and again I have to have a long hard word with myself as I can finance my Law studies through the good wages I earn window cleaning, so I must try to be more positive with my job. Yes, its boring, yes its tiring, yes I get fed up smelling of dog turd because you just don't know where your hose picked it up and its mashed into everything..(you know what thats like). So again...
If you are looking into window cleaning as a job, or a business. Don't consider it... don't think that you might do it in the summer...go out and do it now..make your life change. Because window cleaning has offered me and so many others the freedom to shape their futures the way that they wish.
God Bless You All.
