[QUOTE="phil d, post: 477077, member: 27126"] The thing with subbying to a firm and working with their sparks is usually they are terrified of you, they become so used to taking forever to do a job that they panic when an outsider comes in. They don't fancy theirbosses asking why it took you a day on your own to do a job that takes 3 of them 2 days. We had a new combi boiler fitted by the housing people, 2 men 5 days! When the man came to inspect the work I asked him why it had taken so long, he said that was the normal length of time to do the job, and did I think I could do any better? His face was a picture when I told him that I knew I could do better, I've fitted a few boilers in the past, it used to take me a day, in fact it only took 3 days for me to put a full heating system in!
