If some of you are on the money you 'say', you should be driving around in a decent super car of some sort at least.

I get £11 an hour, due to the proper unsociable hours and travelling I have have managed to earn 36k so far this year.
Anybody know where this is?

No seriously
Programme on it the other week. Build the top section first, lift it up and then build the next bit below it, then the next lower bit and keep building from the ground as it gets higher.......

i see what you are saying about flash car and terraced house but we looked about for a while and just couldnt find a new house we liked!
i think after building new houses for a living you get to see the cheap shit they use to build them,small rooms,garages you could hardly get a micra in etc,not for me sorry.
i will build my own house in the next ten years or so but the wife loves the area we are in and it has a good school so if she is happy so am i,,i will just have to get by in my terraced house with my m3cab(when i find one)

Graceland, funny you mention 28 days later!
Got in a bit of trouble over that!
The really tall cranes "climb" themselves, its like a big car jack splits the tower and you slide another in, its all done with balance.

one thing has been forgotten in all the sparkie work is sales
its hard work and u have to think on your feet but the rewards are great
i house share, pay £250 including bills and i get paid just over 1k a week topline
im 23 and been with the company 3 months, before that i was on minimum wage at the NHS and got paid 200 a week lol
so ive decided to stay paying 250 a month, pay off my loan before xmas and buying a skyline gtr cash
and good thing was, didnt need any qualifications or training at all for this, just be able to talk to sell and most people i work are in there early 20s
