Up here i seem to be benefiting from the fact that i am actually a Plasterer. I have done loads of jobs this year for people who work in the building game and actually have on their vans and flyers that they plaster but when it comes to their own houses they actually say to me well tbh i want it done properly on my own house, fluke'n unbelievable really :RpS_crying:

Where I am in west Yorkshire it's always been a struggle to achieve good rates or price's but it's an absolute joke now.
I'm pricing up against the "skimming courser" brigade, and a finer set of morons you'll never see.
It's not a trade anymore and this is reflected in the **** site work and price's that are mentioned all the time on this forum.
I'd hazard a guess that 70% of the guys on this forum are not time served spreads and you only have to look at some of the moronic posts put up!
It's going to be nearly impossible to get better prices or rates when the so-called economic recovery happens because of the amount of knobsticks that'll work for peanuts?
Sorry to piss on your parade pal but it's gonna be a long hard slog from now on trying to earn a living being a time served professional spread.
Happy new year to my fellow brethren of the trowl.
