Work start & finish times

[High Peak Tiling]

Before I decided to go out alone I was doing stupid hours for about 3 years.. Boss would ring up on a Sunday afternoon & say your in "Cornwall for 2 weeks" or "Trafalgar Square for a week" staying away on jobs for 3-4 weeks at a time and working silly hours to get the job done!

Din't Phil used to go to work on a penny farthing as well.

I start when i get there and i finish when i have had enough... the joys of being ya own gaffer

Me too though I try and fit in with the customer. I like to get started at 8.30 and finish by the time they're home from work.

 

[DHTiling]

Ye.. about 8 to 8:30 start and finish when ever.. sometimes early'ish , sometimes late... what ever takes me on the day or what needs to be done..

I like to start about 8 be finished for 4 but all have said depends on the job

 

[Martyn Leeds]

When you're working for yourself its as and when.

Domestics usually 08:30-17:30ish for me.. Or yesterday 7am til 10pm to get the job done

 

[John Benton]

Normally 8-8.30 start depending on customer. Set myself a target for day, if I reach it by 5 I go home, if I don't I work until I do

 

[PJ Tiling]

I start for 8am and work until 6pm

Depends where m going. Sometimes it can be start at 5.00 finish at 7.00 sometimes start at 10.00 finish at 4.00 ( I prefer the latter but sadly don't get many of those)

 

[BoldreChris]

All local domestic so start at 08:30 and finish at about 6pm BUT... sometimes have to do very early mornings in some of the holiday lets I look after - 6am start then back home for breakfast - and out most nights doing quotes, small jobs, snagging, etc. And then about an hour's bookeeping most evenings too. I love having my own company !

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Depends on what day of the week it is!
Monday is pension day so early start to the Post Office- usually by 10am.
Tuesday do the rounds of the charity shops to restock my wardrobe.
Wednesday is over 60s discount day at B&Q so have to collect materials.
Thursday on the job for 8am then have to get up and go to work!
Friday exhausted from a busy week so early finish for tea at the bowls club.
Weekends - always off.
