X###x Don’t forget tomorrow starts the new Facebook rule where they can use your photos. Don't forget Deadline today!!! It can be used in court cases in litigation against you. Everything you've ever posted becomes public from today Even messages that have been deleted or the photos not allowed. It costs nothing for a simple copy and paste, better safe than sorry. Channel 13 News talked about the change in Facebook's privacy policy. NOTE: Facebook is now a public entity. All members must post a note like this. If you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you do not publish a statement at least once it will be tacitly allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in the profile status updates. DO NOT SHARE. Copy and paste.
Their new algorithm chooses the same few people - about 25 - who will read your posts. Therefore,
Hold your finger down anywhere in this post and "copy" will pop up. Click "copy". Then go your page, start a new post and put your finger anywhere in the blank field. "Paste" will pop up and click paste
This will bypass the system.
I DO NOT GIVE FACEBOOK PERMISSION TO SHARE ANYTHING OF MINE., THAT I HAVE PUT ON THEIR SITE, . PICTURES, CURRENT OR PAST POSTS, PHONE NUMBERS OR EMAILS.. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING CAN YOU USE IN ANY DESIRED MANNER WITHOUT MY WRITTEN PERMISSION OR VERBAL CONSENT.

I represent many trades people on my directory and saw this posted, which is so true. So please, bear this is mind when things look bleak….if that roofer doesn’t turn up or you don’t get a reply from that tradesperson - it’s no doubt not personal… just only so much you can do during the day! 🙂

“Life of a tradesman 🔧🔨

We get phone calls all hours.
We nip out and quote jobs all hours (most nights) We get the job, we go to work.
We make lists, we drive to merchants we pick up materials. We prepare jobs we are about to start, while in the same day finish jobs.
We finish jobs so that we can get paid.
Sometimes we chase that payment. If a job runs over we don't finish until late, we stay until that job is complete, 10:00pm? Then so be it.

Don’t forget the calls, texts, emails, fb messages / all wanting replies and acknowledging….

Somebody rings, I’ve a job needs doing asap, nobody likes to say no.. So as well as all the above we are now trying to squeeze a small job into a tight schedule that then takes twice as long as it should putting you under more pressure.

Van breaks or your ill, Your now a day behind and have twice the work load.

Sounds busy right? Now we'll chuck in a few more..

Banking
Books
Accountants
Clearing back of the van
Sorting our units/yards
Spending time with girlfriend/wife's/kids
Cleaning house
Food shopping
Paying bills
Seeing relatives
That decorating at home that's been waiting months.

Standard week of a tradesman.

So before anyone writes on Facebook about tradesmen this tradesman that, he didn't come quote, he didn't answer my calls, just cut those tradesmen some slack and remember they are only human, and can't be in more than one place at a time, they do forget things but most importantly they do try their best!”

Stay safe all…it’s Friday 🤪🤪
