I've done bathrooms and larger projects but don't really enjoy them. I find I don't take breaks, don't eat, don't drink and get so tunnel-visioned that I end up stressed and slightly obsessed.
Yet give me 3 or 4 1-2 hour jobs a day and a couple of quotes and I'm ok. Infact I feel I'd be happy to install a bathroom in a day as long as the bath was in one house, the basin in a second and the loo in a third.
Part of me feels a bit like a cop-out for turning down work I can do because I find I just don't want to do it. Does anyone else find they prefer that format? My old boss said he found jobbing work to be "rushing around" and didn't like it.
It does seem jobbing is an unpopular niche which is good because there's often work around which other people don't want.
