[QUOTE="Kaffee, post: 984408, member: 57146"] Hey guys, Just some ramblings here. I hope I'm posting this in the correct part of the forum. I'm a desk job guy wanting to switch careers. Stuck in my current job, dreading to go to work, etc. I've done a few tiling jobs for friends and family and it has been very fun to do. I love the work and how you can transform a room. The different techniques are fun to learn, etc. I'm currently trying to work things out on how I would make the switch. I have all tools needed (well except for very big tile cutters, but that's not a job I would like to tackle alone). Realistically, the only thing I need atm is a work van. I'd get started with a cheap second hand van and see if I can make the switch. I'm not in the UK so most rules and or certificates don't apply here but I wanted to get some input from you guys anyway. The biggest thing holding me back right now is having two kids. I know working construction can be time consuming (you don't want to clock 5 hour days and leave clients in a mess) but I also don't want to cut back on family time. So just wanted to ramble a bit and hear some input from you guys how you combine all things (and for once not ask which cutter is best or diamond disc or primer or ... :p ) Warm greetings and happy holidays!
