socks 32,253 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 How many of you lads work on your own and do you enjoy it or do you miss having the craic with your mates ???? I spend about 90% of the time working on my own and I love it ... I enjoy the piece and quiet ... Going at your own pace and not having to consult anybody about anything ... Anybody else work on their own ??? ....... 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shepp 2,285 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I worked as a self employed electrician for five years doing my own stuff, all small domestic. I hated the work but also being alone all day nearly all the time drove me nuts. Maybe if I enjoyed the work it might be different, but doing something all day you hate plus not even having a bit of comaradery to pull you along is just f***ing awful.

baz 464 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) I normally work on my own, I enjoy it, and I get a lot more done' once your on a job with few lads you end takin piss all day having a laugh, great fun but not very productive.. 2 day job becomes 5 day job.. Time = money.. So yep, on. My own it is for me.. Also doing what I do , there's no f****r to let me down,not turning up on time etc Edited March 10, 2016 by baz 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

johnpee 214 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I work on my own 6 days a week and love it do as I please when I please and if I want to sit on my fat arse half the day I can without anyone morning at me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TUFFTY 1,484 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 When I was keepering, I spent many a day and night on my own. Me and the dogs knew what we were talking about even if they don't lol lol. I used to bring the odd lad or mate with me every now and again just to keep me company and have a laugh. But I did prefer to work on my own. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rabid 1,936 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I spent the last 5 or so years working with others all day everyday, it was starting to drive me round the bend, so now I am taking more time for myself, I was 3hrs from home this morning at 8am and realised how quick the journey had gone, I don't like total solitary, but some time out is always good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
