Introduction
Today, we tackled several electrical jobs, and it proved to be a lucrative day! Here’s a brief overview of what we accomplished and how we were able to earn £700 from our first job alone.
Job Completion
We started with Zer unit number one, a drip-down job that was prepped and ready for the fuse box. Everything was beautifully labeled and tested, ensuring that we could proceed without any hiccups. Once the job was done, we had £700 in the bag, which motivated us to take on more.
Efficient Workflow
As the day progressed, I emphasized the importance of having matching components—if you’re not aligning your socks with the fuse board, then what are you doing? I flipped a switch that had a different look but performed as expected. Our apprentice, Chris, is getting accustomed to his role and is now well-equipped with tools to handle various tasks.
Resourcefulness
During the job, we encountered a minor hiccup: we were missing an RCBO (Residual Current Breaker). Luckily, resourcefulness came into play! I managed to find one discarded in a bin, which allowed us to continue without delay. Meanwhile, Chris was busy labeling everything to stay organized.
Earnings Potential
To sum it up, if you aim to make £3,000 in a day, you only need to charge £1,500 for two jobs. With strategic planning and efficient execution, this is entirely feasible. Tomorrow’s another day, and I’m looking forward to seeing what it brings. Until then!
