Hi there my names craig and im from north east england (sunderland/newcastle area's)
Finally got sick of the 9-5 sales job and done a plastering course earlier in year, passed it fine and got nvq2, however i have only now done plastering in my own home (few ceilings and 1 large wall) and also a few small jobs at friends homes, i am looking to do plastering full time instead of my office job.
The only thing holding me back is my confidence in plastering large areas because i haven't had much time to practice because of working full time, How did other people take the jump? Going from a guaranteed income to as and when?
What i would love to do is work full time as a labourer for a plasterer as a kind of apprentice, i feel this would help my confidence and also fine tune my plastering and time skills. I've even bought a van in which i keep my tools in purely because the miss's doesn't like them around the flat! so ive made a commitment by doing this.
Starting to pull me hair out and getting stressed because i know id enjoy being selfemployed ten times more than being a wage slave!
Any advice would be great in what to do
Thanks in advance!
Craig
