self employment.....

[DHTiling]

You can call your self a tiler after you have trained for it and not 4 fricken jobs.

It takes yrs and not a few jobs , here we are again with wannabes charging customers for jobs they have no clue about.

This might well sound harsh but it is the truth.

Who complains about being told they are not trained enough..... Chancers , that's who.

The market is flooded with them , read a forum for a few weeks and bingo another tiler appears.

i passed my test when I was 17..I called my self a driver...but my instructer said now the learning begins..how true was that..So when you spend 2 years on a plumbing course and pass..you are officially a plumber ?...no, because no amount of college will give you all scenarios...so when is it you call yourself a plumber...when you've passed ?

I'm a tiler not a plumber :lol:


Nite all.

Your trying to say im going to be ripping people off lol... If I cant do the job.. I wont do the job and if I mess something up il stop.. Go and pay someone else to do it. If the end result is that the customer Is happy and the work is completed to a decent standard that is all thats needed. And im better than council standard so yeh I would class myself as a tiler... And as for a few weeks ive been doin it since December when I was laid off

i think theres enough abuse on here...last time i come on here now

 

[Mr T]

I dont mind critisism tbh but "call yourself a tiler" is not very constructive is it... Why dont you explain to me why I cant undertake and be paid for a job I feel more than confident of? I respect people on this site as im grateful for everyone who posts with advise its a brilliant way to learn the theory of tiling and the rite way of doing the job.

You have been tiling since December 2012.

Ok does the tax man know this or are you still signing on.

You should inform the tax office within 30 days of going self employed. Have you done that.

 

[Mr T]

you said "on a site for a few weeks and hes a tiler".. ive been learning since December 2012 not working as a tiler I havnt even been paid for any of my work... And I need to notify the tax man ive within 3 months of being paid for my first job get it rite mate... Before I start getting paid for work I will already be declared self employed dont worry about that.

[Mr T]
