That's funny. What do you mean, though? That it's easy?
Yes, essentially. I've worked in the industry for close to 20 years and that bar for "contractors" is quite low indeed.
Hey, thanks for your reply. Would you say that this low bar means that for an actually good contractor, there's a lot of opportunity for word-of-mouth references, repeat business relationships, or high hourly rates?
All of these things.
That's interesting. I've worked with some contractors who are quite excellent. I'm interested in areas where the bar is set higher.
I think he means if you're breathing/have a pulse (breathing onto a mirror - could be wrong though!)
