[PlumbBobBob]

well it looks like i will be leaving the realm of self employment! i have landed a job doing installs, bathrooms, unvented etc. initially with a three month trial period. they've said that i will be put through gas safe and sparking next year all being well and they're paying for my unvented renewal as well and also napit registration.

 

[LUCIALIA]

Well done, bonus if they put you through your gas as well:hurray:

Good luck mate, it would be weird not being my own boss. People telling you what to do again.

 

[Linkyplumb]

Good luck Steve. I do miss the days of being employed, and being able to switch off when not at work

 

[SimonG]

Well done Steve, sounds like you've found a good one. Best of luck

You will still be doing jobs on the side so you'll never get away from it.

if I ever went back on the books with someone there is no way I would give up my own gas safe reg

Dont let them take the pi55 with your van, it's losing value all the time.
But on a cheery note, well done and enjoy your hassle free evenings.

hope all goes well mate - self employed is not as good as it used to be these days I keep thinking about going back to working for someone

 

[PlumbBobBob]

that's mainly why i took the job, regular money and no waiting for the phone to ring, sometimes for days at a time.
