I think what Eagle meant is there is a limit to how far one can stretch himself hour-wise.

Example; Thurs I was trying to complete a rough-in (by myself) that I started Mon.

GC calls- Got Two (new homes) need finished out by Mon. want POCO to heat 'em up Tues. Can you do it?

I say ok. (even though i have another rough-in planned for the next week)

Fri. Rough-in done, AHJ - Nice Green Tag. then off to pick up materials so I can now work all week end.

Sat./Sun. I and helper (my little bro. off on wkend from local POCO) finish out the two houses inside and out.

Mon. I finished the second storage bldg. on the second house, whew -- all ready for POCO to heat up. Pick up supplies for Tues. rough-in.

I do plan on takeing off early for New Years, But as you can see work will be waiting, more 10-15 hr days to make up for the Holiday.

Same GC says two more frame ups in 30 days.

Somtimes you just got to have help to get it all done. Nobody wants to loose work from the GC's that provide regular $$$$$$$$$$$$$
