My dad told me that I should hurry up and get a full time job or I'll be washing windows on Punt Rd.

Why Punt Rd specifically mate, why aren't you thinking bigger? ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸคŸ

If you can learn abseiling window washing can be quite well paid. Great job for an introvert, just you, a bucket, a squeegie and a really long way down.

Yes, Hoddle street has way more lanes. Reach for the stars!

funny you should say that

Royal Parade is shadier, and there's median strips which could make the process safer. You could offer to clean the side mirrors too maybe.
