Title: WAITING GAME NOW........
Post by: MikeDundee on 22 January 2008, 20:36:55

Some of you folks may recall when I done the asbestos surveying course back in July ::), well just posted off my survey reports for part 3 of the course, may take up to six weeks to find out whether I get the ticket. Reason it has taken so long as I have been doing surveys but most samples have been coming back negative. Anyway also managed to earn some extra cash in the process of doing surveys as part of the course work :y, just have to wait and see now ::)

Surveying is anything from £200 to £360 a day on average down here, and it tends to be on the higher side, its the same for air testing aswell, and thats an even better doddle :y
