A Life in the Trade

In order to get to know our tradespeople a little bit better, CORGI Insurance sent out a survey to find out their dreams and aspirations. From superpowers to dream jobs, work schedules to holidays, we wanted to know it all!

The results are now in, so here are just a few tradespeople truths that came to light from our survey:

  • More tradespeople wanted to be sports stars than film stars
  • A third wanted the power of flight, while 23% dreamed of super strength
  • 2% travel 2 hours or more to get to work each day
  • 7% manage a 1-3 day work week
  • 11% would want to go out in a lightsabre battle
  • More than a third have proposed on bended knee

There’s no lack of surprises in these results, and one or two stereotypes have certainly been broken down.

To find out just what makes our tradespeople tick, have a look at our infographic below. We’ve collected some of the most intriguing results to show off our tradespeople’s true colours.
