I tore out a NASTY moldy shower and installed new plumbing. Then met with a couple who wanted to hire me as a "designer" lol. Not my cup of tea. They wanted to change the footprint of their master bath. Told them that I do that kind of work in conjunction with actually doing the alterations an not so much in an adviser aspect.
And to be completely honest I wouldn't even know what to charge for my "vision" I can't draw for shit. I dont waste my time with cad programs because what looks good on the screen often doesn't translate to real world applications. Told them my vision comes from the flexibility of having the space stripped down and having the ability to freelance my visions into reality. Has worked to great effect on 90% of my first contacts and I have never had a disappointed customer.
She tried to hire me on the spot and he said they would call tonight. They spent about 1000.00 on some prefabbed schlueter nonsense and I told him let me build it from scratch and he could pocket 60% of that cost.
Incidentally they were the strangest couple I have ever met. He is a gun dealer and she is a school teacher lol.
Cool people, hope I get the job.
