Episode 77: A Bad Pay Period

On this week’s episode of GTW, we’re talking those weeks where the planets align just right, and you don’t make any money. We all know the reasons and the players in this: a few jobs that you cant “make time” on, plus a few “squeaks and rattles” and diagnosing problems that the customer is well aware of from previous visits, and suddenly you didn’t turn any hours this week! It happens to all of us, some pay periods we get paid for doing the work of 3 people (or at least the hours turned of 3 people) and everything is good. Sometimes you get a terrible deal and the work that comes in the front door doesn’t make you any money. In this episode, we are exploring some of the internal and external factors that result in a down week.

Also Uncle Jimmy defines what a classic episode in the GTW cannon is: lots of yelling and shouting obscenities!
