Leaving aside the fact that there is no landlord organisation prepared to get their hands dirty and get involved in a real fight, we do need to organise ourselves and explain the law of unintended consequences. No landlord organisation is prepared to get their hands dirty Yes, the government has had a bad week or two for publicity, but to bend straight away to the criticism that followed the publication showed me your intentions for the private rental sector more than any speech or manifesto will. This brings me back to the kite flying exercise with the story in The Times.We are loaded, after all, we can afford to repair them. The same people don’t care if our properties get trashed. It’s fairly obvious now that all non-landlords don’t care if we face months or years of non-rent payment because we are obviously loaded.
We need to stop referring to section 21 as no fault evictions but where there is no reason given. Not abolishing section 21, so the media tells us, will see millions of people being dumped onto the streets without a reason because all landlords are bad. The BBC does not even pretend to be impartial when reporting on the subject. This creating legislation that plays to the crowd is no way to run a government and while pressure groups have a role to play, the one-sided argument to end section 21 is beyond belief. The landlords were outnumbered because barely anyone stood up for us. Predictably, all of the relevant organisations and faces kicked up a stink. The story that appeared in The Times was an off the record briefing from ministers and it was clearly a kite flying exercise so the government could judge how the idea of not scrapping section 21 would go down. I’m ticked off about this for a number of reasons (add your own in the comments below…): Then she confirmed in Parliament that the abolition plan will now go ahead. Liz ‘Blundertruss’ has struck again.įirst, she raised my hopes that common sense will prevail on the proposed abolition of Section 21 when it appeared it would remain. This - more.It’s not looking good for landlords, is it? What with rising interest rates, mortgage availability and the government handing bad tenants an opportunity to live rent-free in our homes! I had been used to working for companies who'd built their accounts over many years and knew who to avoid in order to be paid correctly. Much of the business in this franchise involved NSP service providers and taking jobs which I had to learn the ones who are slow pay, no pay, and turn those jobs down. It was a very fast paced job, so I drank a lot of coffee to keep up. It took a while to get used to all the emails and phone calls I got daily. It showed me that you really can do anything you set your mind to! They had owned the franchise for 5+ years and were making a real success out of the business. My bosses were great, and they supported me very well. We could be serious and also laugh at a lot of work situations. I liked the people I worked with, and for, and felt they were of excellent character. The flying locksmith plus#
I had never worked for a franchise before, only well established mostly family owned businesses in my trade (lock, safe and electronic security) some made 10 million plus per year, so they were way beyond Mom & Pop status.Īnyway, I really liked talking to people all over the United States. This company is good as a franchise concept. That being said, no job is without it's problems.Īlthough I have 35 plus years as a locksmith, sales, customer service and management, I had never worked remotely before. Work from home dispatch, parts ordering, heavy phone contact, hundreds of emails daily, and customer service. It was unique in that they sought me out, instead of me seeking them. This was an excellent opportunity which I took advantage of.
