Tell them to fuck off & concentrate on the pupils ha ha, thats what i wanted to do rockey, But I'm surrounded, the caretaker,ALL the teechers,the admin and the staff who pay my accounts are all wimmin, and they all think they know more and a better way of doing the job AFTER its done, So I have to keep it buttoned nod my head,do as they ask,adjust the invoice as required and take the extra work and smile,  |

they are a pain, self important empire builders but they hold the keys to every room and won't lend them to us, so we have to call and wait everytime we need to get in or out,,this affects the invoice as well and no one gives a fuck, so that affects the invoice as well,  |

I work in a small school too. Don't have any problems with staff - I think they're just happy to have someone do small jobs and not charge a fortune. I think they were using a large company before who'd charge a stack for anything. My youngest goes there so I can go in after school and just charge my standard £25 half hour fee for any little bits they need doing. Won't touch their heating though - not got a commercial ticket.

You find people every where who like to stick there nose into things and find fault with everything.
