Today I start my 54th year installing. Mostly carpet as that was my love, most of the time fuzzy side up. Lot of good memories and some not so good but not many. Worked for some famous and well known people over the years. Traveled alot with CFI and Orcon doing trainings. Loved the teaching. Still do a job here and there when the phone rings. Love it.
 
Catching up with you Daris 53 years crawliong around floors but starting to look at really picking and choosing which jobs I will do in the future Maybe shut it down end of March as its the end of the financial year
 
But I will still be checking up on you guys to fill the day in :)
I am in the process of selling my mothers old house which has been rented out for years too cheaply as I didnt want to spend any money on it as I figured who ever buys it would be for land value only. Its maybe 30 mins out from Auckland City with good views if you went up one story. Thought about selling where I live now then putting a new house on Greenhithe but thats too much of a hassle, anybody got close to a NZ$ million? Maybe drop to 750 grand

Congrats Daris. I'm only at around 40- 41 years installing. Jon, I'll trade you some ocean front property in AZ! Just gotta wait till California drops into the Pacific.
 
Ernesto that does not make sense
If you buy a farm there is always something to do so therefore you dont have time to travel the world
Friends here have bought lifestyle blocks and then they have found they have no life style so they have sold them :)

But you have money to pay for farm handlers

I would have liked it if you were doing my woven job...... Just to make you eat your words. Miserabley slow in a log home. 2 bedrooms and a set of stairs....... Is 8 hours too long to trim, seal and seam a 15 foot seam?
 
Pc still has issues, so when I figure out how,I will post some photos. Got a new phone yesterday and broke the screen tonight. See why I loved my old flip phone? You could drop kick it without harm.
