whistle Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Surely the "hassle" has been reduced from installation (if opting for wireless panels)? Also, with built-in or add-on IP modules a lot of the teething problems can be resolved remotely from a laptop? Crack on.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reggie Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Yes but why do 20 domestic jobs with all the hassle for the same profit as one job on a commercial site with very little hassle. Work smart not hard. I hear you, and that makes perfect sense if everything was equal, but surely it's much harder to get commercial work Vs domestic?

One of the main reasons to shy away from domestics is the home owner, does not matter how good an installer you are. Quote I really can't be ar**** with it anymore.

datadiffusion Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It is indeed amazing how relaxed commercial work is in every aspect... Usually plenty of room to park (unless city centre, granted) Usually plenty of room for your kit Put a scratch on a desk its probably worth £20 and the person who's sat on it doesn't give a f**k and laughs it off Plenty of room to shift ***** out the way Loft not full of old tut Don't usually care about trunking, mostly happy you're actually using it 'unlike the network guys we just had in' You can have a **** in the toilet without embarassment Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norman Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Once had a complaint about an engineer using the toilet, said using it was no issue but he took their newspaper up. Quote Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterJames Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Schools are good jobs and we never get any sh!t form them just purchase orders:) I have so many schools now they are becoming a problem, every half term they all want stuff done, more cameras, new access controlled doors, new intruder alarm panels, automated gates ect ect ect. The problem with this is engineers with kids want time off during half term, and subbies are the same. I agree with your comments though Andrew spot on for paying and they never or fk around so long as you look after them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
