< hoping to mistakenly get some of the rep headed toward nogood

Nice avatar Nogoodname.

rep here....lol

We'll i own a small but very busy lawncare/landscaping co. and one of my contracts is with a city that joins mine. I'll go in after the city gives warning letters and then violations for your property, nothing i do is in and out. The money is great $140.00 per hour($70.00 per man hr), but it's a pain. Many of these properties are vaccant and are mostly foreclosed on, or they just don't give a shi%. Here are some pics of before on the one today. What makes it really interesting is when all the neighbors come out and start bitc%ing at you like it's your fault(in one ear out the other).

Nice avatar Nogood

Bitch about what? Their neighbor's lawn?

what a jungle............i'd want one of those mini trucks and i'd pull everything out....lol

yeah, avatar is cool......maybe too much??

It's funny at first, but I'm sure it will get to be too much after a short amount of time.

changed it but the animation doesnt work

So here are the after pics, we were there 4.5 hrs. It does take awhile and the guy that i work with just tells me don't go too crazy on the billing. So today i made $700.00-$120.00 for my help, not a bad afternoon. For this customer i pay my guys $30.00 per hour

"it's not unusual to be loved by anyone"

@red, those people should be thanking your for cleaning it up. i'd tell them to have a cup of stfu.

StLRedrider, that is a lot of work.

they bitch about the eye sore they are living next to. /it's not my prob!!!!!!!!!!!!

looks good, $30hr is crazy money!

No doubt. Good pay for your guys btw.

they still bitch, these are the same guys that call me yuppie for buying the Z, go figure

:icon18:

Nice .......

What up dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

are you serious? do you know how many people would kill to get $15hr for that work? you are one really nice guy, if that was my company and some joker bitched about $30hr i'd **** can him on the spot.

Dead on. Send em packin right there.

when i was in the military a buddy and i got a job cleaning dumpsters from a retired air force guy. we'd have to GET INTO THE DUMPSTERS and scrape out any nasty stuff that hadn't been removed when the truck dumped it out.


Our pay was $10 an hour. Now this was 10 years ago, but still.

laugh all you want ... it goes back in time when he hits 88 mph.

I did lawncare about 10 years ago, and I made around 10 as well. Even $15 an hour would be life changing.

Damn, you MFers are on your game today.

it's absurd, i actually got pissed when i read that!

Money is money!

Hey nogood, you remember the thread i had about the cuz and my truck, well check this out. Has far as i know he never really gave a follow up call the next day or two, so you know she is history. We'll this last friday she called him and wanted to meet up for drinks, he didn't bother asking me for my truck he clean the hell out of this thingAttachment 3626and planned on taking her out in it.


We'll she stood him up. Talk about karma, she's still pissed about going to steak n shake

absolutely, especially in today's economy.

Lots of desparate people out there.

st louis, MO labor & moving classifieds - craigslist

back to work, be back in an hour or two.

dude, what the he$% is that old man riding. it's a classic

See ya tin

The one guy that was there today knows i make $70.00 per man hr, so i let him in alittle on the rewards. But i'm an A-hole

What did you get pissed at?

Speaking of the economy, I know a person with a masters and used to work in the HR dept for a large private company. They were doing pretty well, all the perks. Well they downsized. She is sticking to her guns though and won't take anything less than $150k/year, she said she had just turned down a job for $60k. I laughed and said have another drink.

Btw: I highly doubt she was making that to begin with.

Man those jobs come few and far between,
