The novelty will carry you through it for a year, but if theres 2 of you at least one can cover the other.

One of the hardest things apart from getting the work and earning the money is shutting off from it.

Lots of sleepless nights ahead

Good luck, I know you have a lot of customers already, so I doubt you will find it too much bother.

Flat rate 18K ?? More like 22k

So you are happy to take a drop then.

Was that tongue in cheek?

You must all be masochists. Flat rate

I believe theres an opening at //.National Installer.// local to you

An "opening" it a bloody sieve. If its not engineers their loosing its contracts.

Remember i said my lad was looking for a job in security. Well apparently he said he was amazed at how the big companies keep their engineers in compartments. Domestic or commercials alarms. Large or small CCTV and then fire.

There could be an opening at Secom up this way, engineer was close to be being chucked off site today. Not entirely his fault but he didnt know when to STFU! and from what i can gather at his office, no one there, no one replying to messages left etc!

Its cost Secom the next large High Street Clothing shop about to start at Doncaster so i heard today and theres a lot more new stores on the way so theyre gonna lose a lot more!

Big companies, you gotta love em.

Well chaps after 17 years in the trade and 1 year thinking about it i finaly left //.National Installer.// today for the last time to start my own company.

We have sorted almost everything out and have about 2 weeks work booked in.

I will keep you all posted on how we go on.

Best of luck. You couldn't have gone about it in a better way so hopefully things will be relatively

smooth for you.

Are you joining an inspectorate?

Yes looking at both SSAIB and NSI Silver.

Thanks lads, i have been told i can go back to //.National Installer.// any time i want.

As long as you bring back all the customers you nabbed!

Good luck.

All the best mate some true posts there i can relate to. I sometimes think of going to work a company but dont think its for me.

Congratulations mate.

I knew you would see sense, but if you even think of going back give me a ring and I'll give you some free counselling

Don't forget you should treat the Hcndas differently that the hexes

All the best
