    Newly self-employed, need help pricing a job :)

    Nothing other than Romanian, Slovakian, Polish, or any other eastern European will work for less and send their money back home. If you do not like my example show me one that disproves it.

    Newly self-employed, need help pricing a job :)

    An internet example of a new business. I have a talent or skill that the world will benefit from. I am going to make a fortune. OK so I will do the local market research to evaluate my skills and the benefits I could bring, to my local community and if needed far reached. Reality, some...

    Cameron gets caught out

    I always admire the naivety of some people, different levels of importance in political circles warrants differing levels of disclosure and security. That is why a MP does not have a permanent security detail, and the PM does. When running for such a position he or she will be interrogated...

    Cameron gets caught out

    Do I have to? Tax avoidance has been described as such, is a MP or PM above these rules?

    Cameron gets caught out

    He was still a MP, and only sold his shares when he was in line to become PM. He was left £300,000 from his father, of which he had £30,000 shares in the same scheme set up by his father. He has profited in the past and is now trying to save his career. What this revelation has stirred up is...

    Meters

    I have just cancelled out the de-scoob given to you for this comment. I feel that is a just request. I would hope a calibration certificate issued to myself if I was ordering such works.

    Meter Calibration

    The NICEIC do not require any meter to be calibrated once a year providing that the monthly checks are carried out. Some companies who are registered under the ISO standards do request this as part of their quality assurance requirements.

    Is it worth it?

    I actually like BMW's, but would never buy one or drive one, it would go against my belief about having to have a lobotomy to own one, given the way people who drive them act on the road. Always remember being given the finger of a BMW driver who sported the ichthys, I suppose that was second...

    Zs on 3 phase board.

    Welcome to the forum rEEL, as Sharpend says in his post, 0.9 &0.8 are higher than 0.30. Its all in the decimal place. If you were to write 0.30 to one decimal place it would be 0.3 Zs tests should be carried out with all bonding in place, it is common for the Zs to be a lower measured...

    Avatars

    I personally am not offended by any political or religious symbol, I am however a moderator and should act on complaints received. Many innocent symbols have been used by many organisations for their own needs. The moderation team are not here to censor what people believe, but enforce the...

    Avatars

    It has come to my attention that recently some Avatars have been changed by the users. We allow political debate providing it is carried out within the rules of this forum to which you have all agreed. We can not allow any Avitar to be used if by doing so it causes distress or offence to...

    HELP! Huge Bill 4 Tank Replacement, Invoice Nonsensical, Need Help 4 My Mum! :(

    Hi Dawn and welcome to the forum. It does sound like a lot of work has been done to attain more money. If we take the symptom (no hot water) an electrician would take roughly half an hour to diagnose what the problem would be. Simple test methods done properly would find the problem and...

    Testing circuits that use containment as CPC

    I like the fact that I am qualified to test, and for myself and others like me there is never a conundrum.
