How much work is out there?

[grant3000]

Stoke is about 45 miles so i can do that in 40 miles or so.

Yup thats the one, havent heard much about it .

It was being advertised on the side of a tile shop in Crewe but the board has been taken down now, also the website seems to have been taken offline. With so many well established training companies that people are willing to travel to I imagine it's quite a difficult thing to set up from scratch now

i am starting a 2 week course in Stoke, in oct and then maybe ask a nice tiler to shadow for a week before start up.

so after 3 weeks you will be qualified enough to start up on your own..???? think you need a big reality check mate....how long did it take you to train to become an engineer..? 2/3 weeks..lol

Engineers eh ,they have got to be the worst know it alls in the working world !
I have yet to meet one who does not know better.
He is right about the £1500 a week,hhhummffff i earn that week in week out (there is 3 of us

) when did I say I know better???

 

[Mr Tiler]

if you earn £1500 a week why on earth would you even consider a career change mate? if you go self employed as a tiler you will not be earning that any time soon how old am ya?

I work till it's right.

 

[Mr Tiler]

Sorry mate lol but I think you would be better off sticking at what you do and trying to further your career as an engineer... You wont earn that much for a good few years mate.

oh I know lol I would have to be mad to leave my job!
I work only weekends so Monday to Friday will be tiling,

 

[IHB]

Lots of types of engineers of course but there is supposed to be a general shortage of engineers at the moment with kids preferring law, financial sector, IT etc which are all now over supplied. I'd stick with it.

 

[Mr Tiler]
