I work in the building industry, every site I go on to i will have some other trade going on about what floor tilers are earning. come on then mate what sort of money do you get per metre, why do they want to know, will it make them feel better? when laying a limestone or marble floor then the questions really start regarding money. In the end i told one guy who pestered me that i have been getting £380 per day laying marble, he never came near me again. ( i lied about the money) I work hard to buy all the things my family want/need, plus my hobbies. I had years where i would buy £2.00 worth of petrol all with 2p's and 1p's. Now I find myself going through fazes where I work 7 days a week, cant stop myself, its not the money, but the fear of being out of work some day. i find it hard to turn people down ( especially with very big kitchens/conservatorys). Now seeing as there are a few wealthy people on this site, do you need some very nice marble/limestone?
Damn, reading this I think i need to see a shrink
