BryanSo we know numbers for catering etc
Otherwise you could be eating quiche for the rest of the year MartinRe: Samsung Rsh5sbbp1 compressor won’t run
look on the inside of the pcb cover there is a chart that tells you what the flashing LED means
Re: rapport
Just started using Rapport and so far we are very impressed, both with the functionality of it and the customisation that Sudeep is willing to do.
Re: north west based work
Self employed or business isn’t a problem to Join.
The WTA is always being approached regarding gaps in coverage.
The reality is the more skill sets you have the more work may be available to you.I concur with most of what has been previously said,a decent website is a must,then you can play with google to try and get work locally to you.
Cards from vistaprint aren’t expensive and easily done as well as flyers.
The issue with his Gas will be compiling the portfolio,if he can do the NVQ that Bryan is quoting that would help him, tell him to do everything he needs to get his gas ticket as it will potentially open a lot of doors

The click you can head is the solenoid in the gas tap ,if you have chafed the thermocouple then it will need a gas tap,you will need a gas safe engineer to fit
Re: Darnit – my Smeg hob is broken again!…
It needs a gas tap the solenoid inside has failed ,needs to be done by a gas safe engineer
Re: Masterpart….or Amazon?
Going back to Jim’s point at the beginning ,I wonder how much business for the wholesalers is actually to “trade” members.
In other words is it sustainable to only deal with trade or do the likes of connect et al need to engage with public at large to push margins up.Regarding qualifications
whats the point?The customer doesn’t recognise them .
Only one company that I do work for insist on them,
Apart from looking good on my office wall what other use is there.A piece of paper does not an engineer make.
What makes a good engineer is having the ability to learn and adapt to different product and technologies.That cant be taught in a class room.
Apprenticeships are not financially viable for most of us here even if you could find a suitable candidate.
Regulation or promotion of qualifications incurs a phenomenal amount of cost and admin.
I know from the amount of man hours that went in to the WTA – OFT code of practice just how onerous this stuff can be and then govt pulled the rug from under us.And don’t forget once you introduce regulation and legislation pandoras box has been opened.
And before anyone says they don’t mean regulation just qualification ,again,without regulation whats the point.
