Just did a fence repair for $175!!!
Finished up a punch list on an old job for my final $590 – and picked up a little extra work which I’ll make $175 on!!!
Have an unpaid balance on another job, I could lean on my client to pay, for OVER $1100!!!
I…AM…IN…THE…MONEY…NOW!!!
I am solvent for another 3-4 days!

tried a similar plan today ... wrap up a lingering job.
got there and saw some unexplained peeling paint.
instead of making a quick cash grab I found a deeper hole!
we'll try it all again sometime next week, throw in a little sanding and repainting first.
so much for a nice relaxing Friday ...

Four weeks to go before lay-off from my winter job, and I've got no jobs lined up yet.
And I gotta do my own roof this summer. How I'm gonna pay me, I dunno....

Congrats! What work I've done and the advance for the one big job I may get today, if they call me today like they promised, will keep me solvent through the first week of April.
But if these people put me off again the best I can hope for is to be good for one more week.
The highs in lows is a killin me.
I've grossed about $1400 this year so far.

Many years ago i worked for a smart guy...well i would not work for somebody dumb! yeah sure, but anyhow he would lecture me on how not to worry about the big sale or score "You just want to sell a little bit to everyone, not a big hit to a few" My grandfather was able to send my dad to medical school by selling salami sandwiches.
so don't knock what you are doing....you know you are effective.stinky
