One for the service guys/gals here.
On average how many annual services do you do a 40hr week. Looking for a general balance so asked per week instead of per day, as I know some days you may be hit with 3 or 4 BBU's.

The story is a mate has just been offered a job and they are looking for 50 per week. Private housing as far as I am aware. He says if he doesn't meet the quota they will take it off wages. He will be on an hourly rate (that isn't great) that will be reduced based on numbers. I was doing mostly social housing and with the odd BBU and no-access I was pushing it to hit the 40's some weeks.
 
50 a week is a tough one, at the end of the day you're signing it off.
It might be possible if FGA-ing everyboiler, but it's got to be a bare minimum quality job.
Bosses might say they'll back you up, but when it goes to Health & Safety, It's all about you !!
Also if you come across a fault it would throw the target out.
I've being servicing for 30 years plus & believe it should be quality rather than quantity.
Sometimes needs must, but protect yourself.
Good luck
