Proof of how busy we are

Post by sarah »

How many Guild members does it take to screw in a light bulb?

950 to screw it in and 1 to charge £50 each for the pleasure.


or

How many framers does it take to screw in a light bulb?

2

1 to screw it in and 1 to discuss the conservation standards which should be adhered to.

Can you believe that it took three days of hard graft for our little team of 3 to come up with those two offerings. Can you imagine how long it takes for us to frame anything.

You can laff :lol: but, I once went to collect some pics from and art exhibition at a big local public building. When I got there the caretaker and his mate were erecting a big scaffolding tower on the main staircase to change a bulb in a huge chandelier. He told be it would take both of them most of the day to do the job. Nice to see our rates are well spent. :P

What's the betting that they would just finish the job when anothet bulb would go pop.

Two is the correct answer - getting them inside the bulb is the hard bit.
